The girls went to the Christmas Inn in Pigeon Forge to sing with show choir. They have a beautiful clock above the fireplace that chimes on the hour and follows the chimes by playing a Christmas song. It really is beautiful and it is Christmas time there all year long. Google it if you ever get bored. The performance was a success and as I stated before I will not be uploading the video. Malorie has since decided that show choir is not for her and Jasmine is really not enjoying it as much as I expected her to. Malorie needs to be in gymnastics so Darren and will have to work that out for her and Jasmine really likes to sing but this choir is just not what she thought is was going to be I guess. What do you do?
Moving right along. Thanksgiving and Christmas all went great. We tried not to spoil the kids so much this year and thank goodness we didn't because everyone else did. Darren finally recieved a powertool for Christmas. I think that is the most excited I have ever seen him. Our Christmas started at about 5 in the morning so it made for a very long day. At one o clock we proceeded down to the river where we had a great Christmas feast, the missionaries joined us and I believe they left pretty satisfied. From there we went to my mother's to open more presents and then we stayed the night there. What a day it was. You will notice the pictures of Kennedy. That is the face she use to make when she was about 10 months old then she mysteriously stopped and we are happy to report that she is back to making that cute little face.
So it snowed to day and this is what it looked like......for about an hour and now it is gone. I know you are all so jealous right now. But just think that you all get to go create wonderful memories with the white stuff while the rest of us get to keep our heat turned down and walk around in short sleeved shirts.
Now I must wrap it up for I just recieved a call from Jasmine's school saying that I need to pick her up due to her vomitting. That's right...it is in fact on of those days. Peace love and a great day to you all!
