I’m in a very christmasy mood, so I thought I’d write a christmas-themed blog. I’m going to tell you all about everything I’ve done this christmas season.
Well, with my school’s chorus, we started learning all of our dances and songs for our christmas season shows. We all decided on doing When I hear those Jingle Bells, and Santa Claus is coming to Town (a modern version). We all have a stand-still ‘concert position’ were we sang Innkeeper and Psallite (Psallite is a Latin and German song that we’re singing for a competition next month) and part of Handel’s Messiah. On the 5th, we preformed at our city’s lighting of the greens (outside showcase before our christmas parade) and we did all those songs plus some of our normal secular songs. I also did a charity event over one of our weekends, where me and some of the other chorus members went to a party and sang for some little kids. On Monday, the chorus and band did a joint holiday concert, also for charity, and we did all of our christmas songs.
Instead of making myself broke again this year, I decided to make everyone’s christmas presents this year. I’m making a lot of CDs for everyone, best-of albums and stuff like that. I’m really excited about this particular christmas, because a ton of my family is coming down. Three of my brothers (plus various girlfriends and maybe my cousin) are driving down from IL. and my sister, her husband, and my adorable niece are getting her tomorrow. My other sister and her boyfriend and my other adorable niece will probably be coming (They only live 15 minutes away) and we’ll all be going to my grandparent’s to have christmas dinner. I’ll also get to see my aunt and uncle and cousin at my grandparents. I only wish that we could have a WHITE christmas, which we haven’t had in almost three years! I miss the snow

Well, I’m going to log off now. Merry Christmas everyone!
