Here's a little video of our last rehearsal before we hit Christmas break. I am VERY impressed with where we are at in this process. Especially when you consider that only ONE of our cast members has had any formal dance training and experience. I think my cast is AWESOME! They have really come a LONG way! Enjoy the video and tell me what you think!
Our New Little One!

Christmas Concert Over
Well, the day has finally arrived! Our school Christmas concert is over and went really well last night. My wife and I spent the entire day yesterday at the church getting the stage set and all of the technical things ready for the show. Rehearsals went well and the kids were all excited about it. Then I spent an hour and a half recording all of the light cues for the concert and everything was really looking nice!
At the last minute, I decided to call my Seussical cast and tell them to bring their cast shirts to the concert. We were going to give a little teaser for the musical and perform "Green Eggs and Ham" at the end of the concert. Everyone was a little nervous but they did an awesome job and it really got everyone excited about the full show in February.
The only thing that went REALLY wrong last night happened a half hour before the concert started. WE LOST ALL OF OUR LIGHT CUES FOR THE SHOW!! I couldn't believe it! So our light guy had to run the whole show manually. That was quite frustrating, but God still worked and everything went well.
Now, we have three days of finals next week and then Christmas break will finally be here. I am so ready for a break. I hope this post finds everyone doing well. I was finally able to upgrade to Beta Blogger! Now I am part of the "in" crowd. So have a great day Blogger world!

Christmas is COMING!
I am SOOOOO ready for Christmas break this year. Only a couple more big things to get done at school and then we are off for a quick week-and-a-half break. I am trying not to think about how fast it will go by. We are excited about getting to see "Grammy" and "Papa" St. Clair and all of the rest of the family.
Rennah is very "into" Christmas this year. She loves all of the lights, decorations, music, and basically anything that screams Christmas. It is a lot of fun to watch her light up when we turn on our lights at home, or pass someone's house that is all lit up.
This week, Thursday is our all-school Christmas program. I am ready to get this done. I love our music and the program, but with all of the rehearsals going into the concert, I have to admit it is getting old. But I am excited to see and hear the audience's reaction to the program. I know that it will be uplifting and enjoyable for all who attend.
After that, we have one more week of classes and then three days of finals. In the midst of it all, we continue working on Seussical and getting some final preparation done before we slam full-force into the show in January. Only 71 more days until opening night! AAAAHHHHHHH!
Anyway, I hope everyone is well. Enjoy the pictures below. Leave comments to show your love. Have a great week!
