This week sure flew by. We had the Messiah sing along on Tuesday. That is a city wide event at our Church where people sing the Christmas portions of Handel's Messiah. It is a beautiful evening of music. Emily sat with me and Michael with Doug. Emily sang on the Alleluia chorus - and said, "I know this one, it is easy". I sang into her ear and helped her follow along in the music and she really stayed with us.
Wednesday evening was church with a fish fry dinner. Now our school smells like fish - and well for the next 3 weeks as we are having a fish fry each week.
Thursday was handbells and choir.
Tonight the kids and I had pizza, popcorn & movies. We watched The Hero & Meet the Robinsons. Michael had a gift card for Blockbuster which was going to expire next week - so he got to pick out two movies. He also got 2 20 oz bottles and a bucket of popcorn. He was excited as he got to pick out two sodas - he picked out sprinte and cherry coke. He drank a whole 20 oz. bottle of cherry coke.
Tomorrow Emily & I have a mother/daughter gingerbread house building event at Church. Should be a good time. Michael is going over to a friend's house to play while we are there. Then we are invited over to our friends - Chris & Sue's for their son Sam's birthday. He will be a big 1 year old.
Then on Sunday we are helping the youth put up the Christmas tree at Church.
Wow! In addition we have to catch up on laundry, pick up the house (the kids have to cleeeeaaan their rooms) and do all the usual stuff.
What a fun - but busy time of the year.
