Enjoying Christmas at our house -- 2010
Christmas 2010......
Enjoyed starting the day with lightly falling snow.....
...enjoyed watching the dogs opening their gifts.....
...enjoyed the presents sent by grandparents....
And enjoying the gifts from family.....
....and enjoying the love of family......
Enjoying visit from daughter and son-in-law.....
....enjoying the thoughtfulness and creativity of beautiful handmade gifts (complements of Morgan!)......
....enjoying a "handing down" of a well-loved doll to its new "mommy".....
.....and enjoying more grandparent gifts.....
....followed by more family visits from husband's sister and brother-in-law in the afternoon, phone calls from grandparents, calls to daughter in Texas, and a generally restful day....
Hope you enjoyed your Christmas day too......
(And now it's starting to snow here on the 26th -- how much will we get?)

Digital Nativity!
Here's a great YouTube video my mother sent me this AM. I love the ending: "Times change; feelings remain the same!" Enjoy this cute look at how the Christmas story might happen today.....

Concert videos
These are mostly for my mom and dad, but anybody is welcome to see them!!
Here is the CBA Orchestra (both intermediates and advanced) playing the "Halleluiah Chorus" at the Christmas concert on 12/2/10. (Sorry I missed the first few measures!)
Additionally, here's the CBA chorus performing "Mary, Did You Know?" Unfortunately, my 12-year-old videographer filmed more of ME playing the piano than she did of the choir singing!! And at points you can also hear her humming along with the music!! Since she's sitting so close to the piano, it's difficult to hear them sometimes -- but they did a great job! At least this is proof to Mom and Dad that all of those years of piano lessons did not go to waste -- I'm still playing!!
Enjoy!

Winter already?
Hmmmmm....... Winter holidays? Love 'em! Snow? Not so much..... I thought the first official day of winter was December 21, so what's going on here?
I woke up yesterday to find this ......
And as pretty as it was, I was very glad it melted off quickly during the day ...... only to open the curtains this morning to find.....
I'm starting to think this is going to be another very loooooooooong winter....... sigh.....
