December was a busy month, especially for me. After having a wonderful Thanksgiving here at our house (with Cindy & family, Jeff and Laura, my Aunt Martina, and my cousin Larry & family), we took a short cruise to Cozumel.  We didn't do anything exciting, but I really love being on a cruise. However, we don't want to go on a Carnival cruise again. I guess we were spoiled by Royal Caribbean. After we came home, I jumped into dress rehearsals for the big Christmas production put on by our church. It was so much fun.  I have never been part of a Christmas program like this.  This picture shows an Elvis "impersonator" lip syncing to Jingle Bells with us singing behind him.  I don't think you can see me in this picture but I am on the far left back of the stage.  We sang some secular songs, and then showed the birth of Jesus to the cross and resurrection. We did 5 performance, and hundreds of people came.
