Christmas is upon us!

So much has happened since my last blog. It is hard to remember everything. I completed a card order, made two Rockapella purses, cleaned, ebayed, cooked new things, decorated the playroom, decorated for Christmas, visited Tuscaloosa, and Atlanta. I also went to Rick and Bubba's turkey toss. I threw a frozen turkey but didn't do so hot. Lets just say the 76 year old woman from New Hapshire gave me a run for my money.

The kids are having fun with the tree in the playroom and Victoria loves wearing her Christmas dresses. The highlight of the season so far has to be our Rockapella Christmas concert. Mom and Dad took me and Victoria for my Christmas gift to Atlanta for the weekend. Rockapella had an awesome show. They sang every Christmas song you could imagine and a few of my favorite non-holiday songs. We sat on the front row and I took over 300 pictures before, during, and after the show. They remembered Victoria from the August show. I didn't think they would but Scott came right out and pointed to her and sang to her all through the show. She sat so still and smiled the sweetest smiles at the guys as they sang. Scott was singing "Christmas Without You" and a there is a line that says "All I want for Christmas is you." When he sang "You" he turned and pointed to Victoria. I heard of lot of "Awes" from behind me. That totally made her night and mine! We were on the front row and after the last song, the guys all came by to our side to shake Victoria's hand. Scott told Victoria he remembered her from August and said, "Thank you for being here for me tonight." It was their 5th straight show and I'm sure Scott and the other guys miss their little girls. I think Vic reminded them of that.

It was really just a perfect weekend. It does me so much good to get out of town every once and a while. I also love Atlanta and going to IKEA. My parents are fun too. We enjoyed dinner at the Varsity and lots of laughs. Willy has informed me that there will be no Rockapella shows for a while. It gets pricey! That is okay considering that they only come here once a year or every two years. Twice in three months is unheard of so I can just wait it out. Maybe by the next show, David will be old enough to go or maybe they will come here and we can all go!
