We didn’t exactly get a reprieve from
winter yesterday, but it did get warm-enough for us to lose the bits of snow on
the ground; so being back into the freeze again today was a change for the
cool. I’m okay with that, since there is
still a chance that we’ll have a bit of snow for Christmas; but we’ll see how
that goes.
Seeing Dad off to the city this morning
meant that I didn’t get much sleep last night, but Ethan, Ehlana, and I did
have a nap with Mom in her bed once Dad was on his way; and then Michael came
over in time for Tai Chi before going home again to have breakfast with his
parents and Rebecca. We were off to
school after a quick and easy breakfast and some hair and dress-up fun for
Ehlana and me; and I had a fun day of music and classes that was, as always, a
lot more fun with Michael. We had what
is pretty much a last-minute change for the Christmas pageant today when we had
a major request from a bunch of primary kids that wanted to add one of the
songs from the Elena of Avalor Christmas episode to the show. That is going to happen; and Michael and I
worked up an arrangement with can use for the kids that we’ll start teaching
them tomorrow. That doesn’t give us much
practice time for the kids, but we’ll deal with it; and I love what they wanted
to do – and so will everyone watching the pageant!
Michael and I were at my house for the
night so that we could help Mom with the twins and some work around the house
too. We did our homework first; helped
with the chores and making dinner after that; and then had a play evening that
included the music practice to get ready for tomorrow and for the pageant and
seniors’ Christmas party; we followed that up with a Christmas movie that
Michael and I watched with Ethan and Ehlana while Mom worked in the office; and
then Mom did a Magi lesson with Michael and me after we got the twins tucked in
for the night and before he went home to get some sleep. I’ve been working in my room since then; used
a time phase to get everything done without staying up all night; and now I’m
ready to head into nap mode.
For my Christmas music video pick tonight;
I’m going with two because it was the final performances night for The Voice
this season; and I thought that it’d be fun to include a then and now pair of
songs for one of the contestants. I
don’t have time to watch the show, but do check out the YouTube videos for some
of the performances, so while the ‘Now’ pick isn’t a Christmas song; I hope
you’ll find these music videos by Billy Gilman entertaining.
Have fun with the music while I head off to
sleep now; and, until next time...
...May the Magi Force be with you!
