Yes, I know, I missed the 5 days till Christmas mark! Yesterday was so crazy though that I literally had no time to do anything. Yesterday our homeschool choir had it's Christmas concert and I was in a dress rehearsal from 9:15 to 4:15. And since it was at a church that was a 20 min. drive from our house we left around 8:45 and didn't get home until after 5 (we had to stop on the way home to drop off some girls that we drove home). We were supposed to be back for the concert by 6 meaning that we barely had time to go home and get ready, eat dinner and get back on time. The concert started at 7 and lasted till at least 9. And because the choir wears 2" heels my feet were ready to fall off at the end of the day.

After the concert there was a cookie and punch reception. Mom and the little ones and my grandparents went home after the reception but dad and Nat stayed to help clean up. Where were Jc and I you ask? Well, after the reception everyone was invited to go out to eat at a place called Interurban. However, a lot of people decided to go to IHOP instead. Jc and I got a ride and had a ton of fun. We didn't get home till about 1:45 and I still didn't get to go to bed yet. I had to take down my hair and brush my teeth. I had fun (ha ha) trying to undo my hair because I had so many pins and so much hairspray (I hate hairspray, it's gross) that my hair practically stood on end!

Overall, it was a good concert. Jc and I were in a ladies ensemble and during the dress rehearsal we all completely forgot the words to one of our songs. Thank goodness we remembered them for the concert! Both our songs went well, so I guess you could say I had no reason to be nervous. Well, I have to go now, Goodbye!



4 days till Christmas!
