Crazy Busy Week Ahead!

Well this is the week leading into the Christmas Musical at Church. This year we are doing "It All Happened in the Country." A cute show that lets our city slickers play cowboys and cowgirls for the night while sharing the message of God's grace and love for us! The set is moving a long nicely and hopefully it will be done by Wednesday evenings practice! Practice Wednesday, dress rehearsal Saturday and the show Sunday, wow such little time and so much to do! I know that it will come together as it does every year! I am so thankful for all those that are helping with the show! There is no way that Jason and I could pull off such a large production all by ourselves!

We have such a great group of kids involved in the show! This year, including our teens that will be about 41 kids in stage! God is so good! What a blessing it has been to have such a growth in our church this year!! The kids are doing great and I know that their parents, grandparents, guest of all kinds will just love the show that they put on this coming Sunday! I also know that each and ever guest will be so proud of all the hard work that has been had over the last 3 1/2 months of practicing.

The holidays are here and with the show, I am not ready at all. Most years I have my Christmas cards ready and mailed out the day after Thanksgiving. This year I have not even started them. We usually put our Christmas tree up the day after Thanksgiving and decorate it and the house in and out. Not this year. Our Christmas tree is up and has lights on it and about 8 ornaments. By the end of this week, I have to have it done because the totes for ornaments are in the living room take up space and with family coming in for the show on Sunday, it needs to get put away. Sometime next week, Jason will have to decorate the outside of the house. If all of that is not fun enough, Jason also has to find the time to replace our garage door opener! Once this weekend is over, things will slow a little and we look forward to Christmas Eve when we get Chelsea and Matthew and we get to spend the next week, just hang out as a family.
