Christmas Day and a brand new baby!

Merry Christmas! Last post for this year!
One of my best friends had her baby on December 22nd. I got to hold him soon after he was born and also got to hold him on Christmas day! He's the most precious thing ever! I also got to talk to my best sister friend Rachel who is currently in Lesotho, Africa on Skype for close to an hour. It was a nice Christmas gift. I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas! I'll talk you again next year :)
Baby Nathan on Christmas Day cuddled in the blanket I made him!

Baby Nathan three hours old. What a privilege to get to hold him! Congratulations Anna and Nathaniel!

Christmas Program No.1 down!

Well, last night is over. Sorry that I don't have any pictures to post yet! Hopefully I'll be able to have someone send me some later. I know that there were several taken, I could see the flashes from backstage. Despite some minor (major to me) difficulties, the program went without much trouble! There was just a few different sections... I was backstage and the drama had started when I realized that the icicle lights edging the platform were still on, nothing like shedding a little light on the sets when the people come out... oh and the lantern didn't get turned on.... or when the narrator didn't realize we weren't doing a song, so there was all this dead space. He was waiting on the lights to go off and the song to start, and we were backstage waiting for his words to cue the actors in... or when "Mary" forgot a line and "Joseph" had no clue when to go onstage... or when a choir member shows up backstage halfway through to replace the batteries in one of the mikes...yeah little things like that :) Baby Jesus was absolutely adorable! He moved some when we had him backstage, but when he got out front, he didn't move hardly at all. I think we are going to remove the paci tonight! I want a little action from the baby! He's so adorable that he looks like a doll, but.... He's not! Anyway, it was great fun, except that the nerves didn't hit me until around 7:30. I was standing in the back waiting for the intermission so that I could go and switch the platform around, and I started stuffing food! Two pumpkin roll slices and four cookies in just a matter of a few minutes. That's when I knew I was nervous :) I wanted pizza, but I'm glad I talked myself out of that one! I won't be able to give an update or pictures until probably Monday. I might be able to send some pics tonight via my phone. I'm not making any promises! Well, I hope you have a wonderful day! And hopefully this post isn't boring! See Ya!

Christmas Program

The annual Christmas Program is tonight. This year I didn't get all of the drama stuff started as soon as I usually do, therefore... I should be extremely stressed. But for whatever reason, God decided to allow me to get sick. So while I am concerned about tonight, at the same time, I kinda don't care. It's horrible, but at the same time I know that I don't have the physical ability to be extremely stressed concerning the program this year. I'm really excited this year tho! It's going to be great! My actors are amazing and wonderful! If you can't make it to campus, we are live-streaming. It goes on the net at close to 7:00 pm tonight at www.holinessonline.com. There is a link for the live-streaming :) . I hope that you can go and view it and enjoy it! Even if you can't, please remember us in your prayers! Anyway, I hope to be able to post some pictures later! Have a wonderful day!
