I have been rehearsing for a while to sing at the church Christmas services this week. I am part of a small ensemble of singers and I have a solo in one of our songs. If you want to come out and see us, the services are on December 23rd at 7:00pm and December 24th at 4:00pm at Heart of the Canyons Church. Our ensemble led worship this morning and I got to practice my solo, so I'm not feeling nearly as nervous about the Christmas services as I was.
This week is going to be so eventful, but so fun! Tuesday and Wednesday are the Christmas services. Christmas eve morning, my mom and I are making and delivering a ton of cinnamon rolls! After the Christmas Eve service, we are heading off to my Grandparent's house for the BIG family thing! About 35 of us get together for dinner and a gift exchange! So fun! After that, we are going to my parents to have presents with them and my brothers. After THAT, we are heading to my brother and sister-in-law's for our annual Christmas eve beer!
Christmas day, we are celebrating our first Christmas together by having breakfast and opening presents. Then we are heading down to Orange County to spend the day with the Hendricksons!
On the 26th, we have a big family event! :) Then, on the 27th, we have Allie's bridal shower and bachelorette party! The 29th is Alex and Jeremiah's wedding and the 31st we are off to celebrate new year's eve! Whew! Its going to be a long and fun holiday!
Gordon's parents came up here today and went to church with us and we took some christmas pictures by our christmas tree!
