I had made Steven's parents and my mom a Choose Your Love Love Your Choice cross stitch and put it in a frame with wedding photos of all of the kids. Little did Steven know, I had been working hard on one for him when he would go out of town for work and scouts.
Then brunch at the Heumanns and we rushed off to church where I was leading the choir! It was a very stressful but fun thing to do. With lots of prayer and inspiration we had a great program and people finally started showing up to sing after threats of dismemberment from Brother Collins of the bishopric. :) We had many compliments on how the program went. I am not the choir director but our choir director's husband had been diagnosed with cancer and the prognosis was not good. He has since passed away. My plan was to tell the story of Christ's life form all perspectives. I found a song that was about Mary that pulled it all together. I also sang a solo and Steven narrated the program. We ended with the congregation singing I Know that My Redeemer Lives. I was so happy that I was guided to the song choices because it was a struggle to come up with them on my own. There was some skepticism from choir members as to why we were singing I Know that My Redeemer Lives on Christmas but I won them over in the end.
Then to lunch at the Hale's where we got a new camera (not fantastic but better than my phone)!!! Yeah. The photos from here on out (until Steven gets sand in it at Scout Camp) should be better than photos of the past. I do not have photos to show because I opened the camera at the end and spent the rest of the time testing out different settings...it did not get any good photos.
