Our performing girls

Cami had her Christmas concert for kindergarten last week. It was so sweet. She's just too funny with her facial expressions. (I went back to look at Alaina's kindergarten concert, and you should totally watch them if you have an extra minute, here and here. They are priceless. Seriously.) Here's Cameran in "Away in a Manger" for your viewing pleasure:


Alaina had to miss her Christmas concert because she had mandatory Nutcracker rehearsals at the theater that evening. She was a soldier and an angel this year, performing in 5 performances over 4 days last weekend. She did a great job. The surprising thing is that Alaina has decided to take a break from ballet and take a theater class instead. Here is a bit of her angel performance:


We're gearing up for Christmas. The girls have been gone since Tuesday night in Ft. Wayne and I have spent the week shopping, as I was WAY far behind. Luke was a trooper shopping with me all week. We'll travel to Ft. Wayne to pick up the girls Saturday morning and head back in time for our church's Christmas Eve service. It has been a nice break with them gone, but I have to say I have missed them at times. I saw a rainbow the other day in the car, and Lucas didn't understand why I was so excited. The girls would have appreciated my excitement. :)

Merry Christmas to you all. I pray you feel our Father's peace and love this holiday season.
