I come from a big family, as some people might say, and I really like that there are so many. There can be bad times and good(mostly good, of course), but God is always close in every time. Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Matthew 6:20 and 21.

Christmas Program at the Nearest Old-Age Home :)
Yesterday,we performed a shortened version of the Christmas Program at an old age home. It went surprisingly well, and I think that the listeners enjoyed it. I am glad for that. They sang along to the carols that they sang too. We were a little surprised at that. :) Away In a Manger,Hark the Herald Angels Sing,and Silent Night were some of the traditional carols that we sang and\or played. We also sang\played songs such as To Us a Child of Hope Is Born, and The Birthday of a King. It was enjoyable for me,too,because I love to sing and play. Even if I do get a little nervous. :)

Skating!!!!!!!!!
On Monday, we went skating. Though there was no snow, it was great fun. Some of us had a few falls. My younger brother used falling to stop!
Though it's cold, -1 to -10 most of the time, there has not been very much snow,unfortunately.

The Wedding!
Yesterday,the wedding of my brother and my new sister took place. There was a lot of excitement and elation about,first of all, having a wedding in our church-there hasn't been one in for quite awhile- and,second of all, the excitement that weddings cause. It wasn't a very big bridal party,but... Though it was a rainy and wet day, the dreariness didn't dampen things a bit. After the meal(it wasn't really supposed to be a meal-more like refreshments) we sang hymns with piano and sometimes violin accompaniment. It was a very happy day for all of us, but at the end we were pretty tired. Were we ever glad to get home! It's nice to have another sister in our family! :) I don't think that we have many pictures, but if I can, I will try and post some sometime.

Rain :( And Weddings
Unfortunately, Saturday night it rained and now all the snow melted. :( Everything's back to being green.
My brother is getting married on Friday. I wish him well and God's blessing. It will be different in this house without his presence.

December and Advent
It's December! 24 more days until Christmas! :) And tomorrow is the First Advent!
We baked spritz cookies today and arranged Christmas flower bouquets! Everything is so Christmassy now and gets us into the spirit of Christmas. Yesterday,it snowed alot and we were quite excited. In approximately 5 minutes,there must have been about 2-3 inches of snow! The roads,though,were fairly bad and there were a number of accidents.
