I can Relax

This week I can finally relax. Landon has been in the play Secret Garden and all last week was rehearsal. He also danced one night with his calss. I was amazed. he has come sooo far. I would like to have my children appreciate the arts and sports. I hope they will. It is so nice to be able to do things like that.


We had our Smith Music piano recital the weekend before. The kids played great. We went to the church and used the Organ and Piano, My friend Karrie played her violin- thank you Karrie. It was beautiful.

I am directing a musical theatre class performance this week at an elementary school T'was the night before Christmas. It will be really cute. I had to recruit Landon to be Santa. He wants milk and cookies- LOL

Taylor has had preschool Christmas parties and music makers this month is filled with Christmas singing.

The primary children sing Sunday. They are doing the First Noel. They make me cry with their voices when I hear them

To top it all off I am playing Halleluah- handel's Messiah for our churhc sing a long christmas program this sunday. And yes it is the Original version. i hope Handel doesn't turn over in his grave when he hears me butcher it LOL - I hope I can pull it off. I have been practicing a couple of months and I still don't have it nailed. Only a miracle will help me these next 4 days. it is gorgeous though.

this sounds like a ton of music and it is. WOW. I have been busy, BUt all in good fun.

How do these people compose. I am not one of them. I can play and read music but I wish I had that talent.

My new favorite composer is Paul Cardall. He is a pianist and is amazing. You can hear his music if you look. Anyway, Christmas is upon us. reading my schedule is giving me ADD so I better stop,
I can't wait till we go see lights. I have taken the kids to see Santa and everything and we have been reading a Jesus story everyday up till the 25th.

I hope we can visit a few old friends during the holidays. I am excited to go to Falt Irons wiht Cindy this weekend. I need some away time and to shop. I have to admit I LOVE shopping. Yes I could do ti everyday all day


Anyway here are a few pics of the kids messing around with the christmas tree. They turned out cute, Tay is sick today. he has a fever and Landon is ready to be done with school.

We took him to It's great to be 8 fireside or meeting the other night. they talked about being baptized and joining cub schouts. he is SOOOOO excited. i am so proud of him.


Ok enough of my babblings. Here are the pics.
