Advent Day 5- Nostalgia

"You did it! Congratulations!  World's best of cup of coffee!  Great job, everybody!  It's great to be here." -Will Ferrell, "Elf"

What is more nostalgic than children's Christmas choir?

This time of year is so busy and full.  Remember to thank teachers and choir directors and co-workers and your parents who make this time of year so special.  I remember Christmas practices when I was a kid.  I was in the "The Innkaper", "Wise Guys and Starry Skies" (I had chicken pox and didn't know it at the time but I was cook with a spoon in my hair), "Christmas at Lone Star Gulch" (I wore an old fashioned dress with little pearl buttons that was too big for me and itchy but loved it)"Not a Creature Was Stirring"( I was a black cat), and the one I remember the least "Arch the Angel".  They were chaoticThey were fun.  They were labors of love with not a whole lot immediate rewards.  It will be a miracle when I can take the time to transfer our old VHS tapes to DVD and maybe even put them on Youtube.  Just a Christmas wish right now and I just wanted to thank all the extra helpers during this super busy time of year.
