So before Thanksgiving - I went to Las Vegas to see Kris play in a softball tournament - where her team won the tourney - the hard way :) - and she was selected for the All Tourney Team - or something like that - a very cool thing! Now, remember, this was Before Thanksgiving - we are landing in Las Vegas and as we are flying over this neighborhood near the airport - there was an entire part of it that had massive Christmas decorations and lights on display - that is WAY too early!
So on the trip home - we are waiting in the airport for the plane and we hear this clicking noise - we look over and this woman is clipping her toenails there in the waiting area - Disgusting! Ick!
A few more stories... The puppets performed in church recently - and I wish I could have seen the kids - I hear they were just enthralled by it all - a shout out to my puppeteers! Great Job! There were three of us in the back and when we finished and were waiting for the best time to walk out - I told them thanks and that it went really well and Lynne says "Yeah - and they (the congregation) laughed at all the appropriate times!" And one of my favorite comments from people was - we never saw you go to the back of the stage or leave - pay no attention to the man (or in this case three of us) behind the curtain!
A few Saturdays ago, Terrie and I were doing arts and crafts in the choir room and the kids for the Christmas pageant started showing up for their dress rehearsal. One of the little boys (probably about 3 or 4) was standing near me when his mom took out his shepherd costume to show him and he got this great big smile on his face and said "I'm going to be a handsome shepherd" and indeed he was!
Last week, I broke down and bought Sadie this play ball that has holes in it with feathers in the middle and rope covering the outside and figured I would wrap it up for Christmas - yeah - I got it home and couldn't wait to give it to her - of course when I dropped it on the floor for her to play with - she was only interested in the cardboard tag that had the price on it! Should have known.
Enough for now - have some Christmas presents to attend to... Happy couple of days before Christmas!
