I’d like to invite all of you to a Wonderful concert on Friday night! It’s the Bells on Temple Square Christmas concert in the Conference Center at Temple Square.
There are still tickets available, and I have several with me. It will be a fun evening. Come see the lights, and listen to some wonderful music. At least I hope it’s wonderful.
Last night’s rehearsal was a bit rough for me, and I don’t think I could have played “God rest ye Merry Gentlemen” any worse if I had been trying. Which I wasn’t, really. But I’m hoping that tonight’s rehearsal goes better, and that Friday night is the best of all.
Speaking of tickets, I have today become an official ticket broker, it seems. A lady from my ward called and told me she had gotten tickets to the King’s Singer’s concert, and wanted to know who else had been wanting them because she had a few extras. Isn’t that sweet? But she was lamenting the fact that they were on a bad night for them and they would miss their family party. I offered to trade tickets with her, as either night was fine. She was SO happy, because then she could attend both the concert and her family Christmas party. Good! I’m glad I could help her out (season of giving and all that, remember?). Not 5 minutes later a lady called and said her name, and said we had met at Curves the other day, and she was wondering if I had Thursday night tickets (she had talked to that other lady from Curves who I had given a ticket to). They had a ward Christmas party on Friday, and something else on Saturday…… I told her I would look into it, but I was pretty sure I could find someone who wanted to trade. Voila–I found someone in the choir who needed to trade his Thursday tickets for some other night. I’m like a ticket matchmaker! And let me tell you, it’s exhausting.
So, please don’t ask me for tickets to the Mormon tabernacle choir concert. But if you’d like to come to MY concert on Friday night, we’d love to have you!

By tomorrow I should have some Christmas pictures to post. I’ve been decorating!

Oh, and for today’s stuff to give away, I’ve filled a bag full of size 5/6 girls’ clothes to give to a friend of mine who’s daughter is younger than mine. How are you doing? Are you de-cluttering? Are you getting into that giving spirit? Don’t worry if you’re not– there’s still lots of time.
I’m full of Christmas spirit and the giving spirit. I just sent a check off to the Utah Food bank.
Good Luck tomorrow night! Thanks so much for the invite- it sounds like fun. Unfortunately I have a work party I have to be at. Your concert sounds like more fun.
Paige, I’m so sad tonight that I can’t at the concert! I think that they should make an exception to the “no kids under 8” rule if it’s just an itty bitty baby and the offspring of a substitute, don’t you? But play well, BOTS! I’ll be thinking of you!
I’ll be at the party – will I see you there?
