Last of the Christmas...er..."Holiday" Concerts

Amber had her second choir concert tonight. The one last night was at the mall, but that one isn't fun because the accoustics are bad and there are never enough chairs. I like the concert at the school much better. We almost missed it tonight because we started dinner kinda late for making it to a 6:30 concert. Amber and the other kids were very cute, though. I can't believe it's Amber's last year in elementary school.

David made a fantabulous dinner tonight. He roasted a turkey - his turkeys are the best! He also made baked potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, green beans, cranberry sauce, stuffing and olives. I got to make the gravy, which I thought was a pretty good deal. For some reason David doesn't like to make gravy. Gravy is way easy if you remember to keep stirring it. Too bad I had to wolf dinner down so fast.

Jarom had his band concert last week. He got to play a trumpet solo on a Jazz Band song and he did a really good job. Meagan recorded a video of it. Maybe she'll post it on Facebook or something. Jarom also 2 moles cut off his back this week. Poor Jer-Jer. We have to be very careful when we hug him. He also FINALLY got his colored pencil drawing done and turned it. Yay! I guess he gets to use the computer again.

I got to Katelyn's choir concert the week before that. Long story. Holly called me at the last minute looking for a ride. At least I was able to take her. I decided to stay so she and Katelyn would have a ride home. The junior high's choirs are quite good. I especially liked Carol of the Bells, but that's always been one of my favorite Christmas songs. The choir director was cute. She reminded me of Becky. When she directed the choir she was almost dancing and was very jazzy. She looked like she was having a good time.
