Ah...Christmas (mumbo-jumbo thoughts)
Well it's almost the new year, but first comes Christmas. Boy am I not ready. WHAT HAPPENED TO 2011! We're just 2 weeks away from 2012!
This whole fall has been crazy so I've been shirking my blog. Which I miss. I miss blogging. I dream all the time about the cool blogs I could do. Most of them are book related since I follow so many author and book blogs. :D I do have a book blog. But it would take a lot of work to shape up.
So sorry for shirking. My goal for 2012 is to post at least every week.
But back to Christmas.
What do you love about the Holiday? For me it's lots of smells, sights and sounds. Not to mention the family traditions and fun that comes with celebrating the birth of Christ.
A short update and them I'm off to hit the hay. :D
With our Homeschool Group (Scholars of Light/SOL) we have a choir. This is for the older kids who can sit through long practices and learn longer and harder songs. (Jamie is the youngest member @ 8yr.) It's been a lot of fun to learn awesome songs.
This season we thought it would be fun to have some of us piano playing youth accompany the choir on the things we learned. Of course I jumped at the opportunity. We've already had once performance and that went great. I think mom will be videotaping the performance tomorrow so maybe I'll get access to that.
I'm playing Christmas Bell Carol (also known as Carol of the Bells) and a Natalie Sleeth song (we do a lot of her) called Were You There. It's a lot of fun.
Well I'm tired and I have a book waiting. What's better, Books, Beds or Both?
I'll go with Both.
Till next time. Feliz Navidad!

Cello Wars
Some of you may know that I really like Jon Schmidt and his music. Well his accompaniest Cello guy, Steven Sharp Nelson is FAB on the cello. He's done a bunch of multiple cello piece arrangements and done music videos for them. He uses special kinds of cellos and oh wow it's so good. Well his latest will delight many. It's called Cello Wars, and as the name says, it's a Star Wars Parody. Enjoy!
