Production Weekend

We made it! As I look back over the past week, I can see so many answered prayers.  It was a definite exciting week seeing God work through many details to put the "Best Christmas Pageant Ever" together.  During a huge crowd on opening night, I was able to pray with some of my lead actors because of nerves taking over.  God calmed them down.  No one RUSHED or MUSHED or MUMBLED there words.  Even a dear old friend (who is hard of hearing), heard the play.

Thank you for praying.  If you were to look back into the sound/light area, you would of seen me JUMPING UP AND DOWN.  They nailed there lines, timing, and energy.  I knew they had it in them, but most rehersal were at about 50% level.  I guess they saved all of that enthusiam to opening night.  They all did wonderful.


We only have two more shows, and it is already a bit sad to see this outreach come to an end.  I loved having my family involved. I loved seeing so many talented and gifted people in our church join together to make it a huge success.  Thankfully, many new faces entered our doors and got to see how Jesus changes things!

The next morning began with another full day of productions.  We went to Anchorage for Sonja's Studio of Dance winter show.  Hannah and Bronwyn took Musical Theater by our very on talented Anna O'Laughlin.  Hannah also danced in a high energy ballet.  I have added a video for the grandparents.  In the spring show, the musical theater class will have microphones as it is "Singing & Dancing".  I can't wait to hear them loud and clear.



We ended the weekend with a marvelous sermon on waiting on the Lord and in His timing.  Thank you for the reminded that we Pray and Wait for the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ Return!

Merry Christmas Everyone. Now, I need to take care of sicky husband.

The dance...Painting the Roses Red

Some sports have a definite season, but with ballet it is a life.  However, the endless practices and rehearsals come to a halt at the performance.  Thankfully, that happened last Saturday night for our family.  Hannah was in Sonja's Studio of Dance performance called "Bloom."

I appreciate the variety of dances and different styles.  However, I do prefer the way Mrs. MacIntosh did her performances in Durban with a story.  Her husband was a theater director so, she was blessed with costumes, actors, and theatre know how to the hilt.

Surprisingly, Hannah's class did a dramatic dance to "Painting the Roses Red." I am having some trouble with my movie, so I will post that later.  She did beautifully.
