New Years Day and Beyond!

For New Years Day, our family celebrated by going to a concert performed by the Bisceglia Family and the Whispering Roses.  We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the concert very much!

Here we all are after the concert (and after the cleanup!).

Judah especially enjoyed seeing his friend Noah!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But of course the celebrations weren't finished!  For in our house we celebrate Birthdays and Holidays for weeks!!!  (Sometimes...)
We enjoyed celebrating the New Year (again) at an Irish Ceili a few days later.

Here's a short video of us dancing!


Enjoy! 
And Happy New Year!

Some Manly History

Recently, Judah found a picture in a coloring book of a soldier he wanted to color.  Since the picture was already colored we decided to make a life-size- Judah-model of the French Soldier.

Here's the finished product (or rather nearly finished--we still have to make a helmet)~

Ta-da!!

A Christmas Adventure!

For Christmas, we went out with our friends (the Bisceglia Family) to see the newest Narnia movie!  It was "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" and it was very well done!  Here we all are after the movie:

Merry Christmas!

---------------------------------

For the fun of it, here is a movie of us from last year... singing one of our famous "Chocolate Songs"!
This is back by popular demand!


Enjoy!

Choir Concert

With all the busyness of the Christmas Season, we actually never got around to posting about our Choir Performance!  Well, better late than never...  The concert was wonderful and we all enjoyed singing along with the rest of the group!

Enjoy these pictures and be sure to watch the "Hallelujah Chorus" at the end!
---------------------------

Here we are... in concert!

Ahhh water!  The perfect ending to a singing concert! :)
It was a blessing to meet this lady.  To this day, we all call her "The Angel!"
We all enjoyed meeting Michael and Lynn Attwood for the first time!
(Michael is Jordan's recording engineer.)

Unfortunately, Daddy was unable to attend the concerts... but here's the majority of us!

We were overjoyed that the J. Girls were in the choir with us!  It was very fun to be able to fellowship with them afterwards.
L-R: Shiloh, Eden, Marilee J, Bethany J, and Bethany (me!).

Well I have to admit-- once again the guys were outnumbered!

And lastly, here we are with the amazing Choir Director: Mr. Jon Cummings!
We all had a wonderful time!  Here's the "Hallelujah Chorus" from the last performance:


Thank you for watching!

And Merry Christmas!
