Weekend Plans

One week down, only two more to go! I am barely containing my excitement to be in Ohio! Normally, I don't long after cold, snowy weather and gray skies, but this trip means a great road trip with Steve, stopping for dinner at an actual restaurant (or pizza delivery), staying in a hotel, and an entire week to crash with family that we rarely get to see!!!
.
Tonight, Steve and I are going to see The Nutcracker. One of our youth group guys won the lead for the toy soldier, so we're going to support him and make this our "Christmas date". I spent yesterday baking, and we're going to visit Steve's widows and widowers (he's a deacon, so they're not his ACTUAL widow) on Saturday morning. :) We're bringing Christmas cookies and poinsettias...very "Christmasy."
.
Sunday begins a loooooooong week of choir rehearsals, dance practices, and the Christmas program at church. I'm in a 1950's dance routine for the song, "Let's Twist Again" - complete with poodle skirt and saddle shoes! It promises to be extremely fun and completely humiliating all at the same time.

Here's a video of Bella on her horse! Hopefully, it will load...

Is Bella riding the horse in her room? I love the flower mural behind her.

Sally, Yes, it's in her room. Ben Smallwood painted it for her as her 1st birthday present - there is a tree and an owl, too! He was awesome!

Have a great time out tonight! Wish we could see your Christmas program. I'm sure it will be really good! See you soon! We too are very excited for Christmas to be here!
