Tis the season....

For Christmas concerts.

The High School concert was fantastic!

Chyann even had a solo!

You'll hear her playing throughout the piece.
It's a tinging sound.

Originally it was to be a solo for the cow bell.

Then it was a spoon solo.

In the end it was her hitting a hunk of steel with some kind of music mallet. 

Yes, that is the Hubby at the end saying "more cow bell"

You ever see that SNL skit with Christopher Walken?

Well, that is what the cowbell comment was all about. 

And I'd share a video of Caden's concert, but it would make you sea sick beyond belief. 

As you can see in this picture,  he is taking after his older brother in being a major ham when the camera is pointed in his direction.

He has all his buddies talked into being in band and choir next year.
His group of buddies will be a fun bunch to watch grow up.

Colton made it home from school yesterday.

He scared himself shitless by running into the ditch and quickly out again when a car swerved in his direction and almost hit him.

We got about three inches of snow, but the wind was freaking howling all day. 

Made for some drifts here and there.

Heard on the news that the Madison area got something like 20 inches of snow.

Yowzer!

No, I am still not ready for Christmas.

There are presents to be bought, wrapped and cookies to be made yet.

Planning on heading out tomorrow after I get off work to hopefully finish it up and get the weekly grocery shopping done.

Time it flies

and

I'm running out of time this Christmas.

Although I am finding some spark of  Christmas spirit within myself.

Better late than never right?

Have a good weekend :)
