winter and snow and everything good.

Hey you guuuys. sorry it's been forever and a day since I've updated. but what evah. it's been crazy.
so. last week was thanksgiving week as well as dress rehearsal week for my show. it was... intense. dress rehearsals were pretty scary. we starting running the show all the way though two days before we opened. everyone was super nervous and I don't think anyone thought we would be able to pull it off. but we did, and we opened with a bang. I think one of the most exciting thing for me was wearing a mic for the first time. it's not a big deal for most people, but for me it was like the forth of July.... the first day we wore it, I was seriously terrified... the thing is worth 400 bucks, and I wear it on my face. when I held it for the first time, I pretty much thought it was gonna blow up in my hand. it didn't, thank goodness, but it was scary. I feel super snazzy wearing it now... I think I should wear a mic all the time... and then, I could break out into song in the middle of the street, and people would dance with me! right? ... yeah maybe that's not such a good idea. ;) so yeah. that was a highlight. and then there was thanksgiving... that was super fun. Clara came home for the weekend. it was nice to have her around again. I miss her. we had Thanksgiving at my Aunt Perky's house. it was very nice and relaxing. it was a small gathering, but it was pretty much perfect. it was snowing a lot too, which made it super lovely, AND there were turkey's roaming about her yard, too. go figure. :)






So yeah. Winter is finally here. lotsa new photo ops. and that's super exciting to me.
But honestly, this month has been so long, and so hard... God's really working up a storm in my life, and it's really been changing me and changing my family. But as hard as it is, I can't help but be joyful and THANKFUL. I am learning and growing so much... and I'm so thankful for the family I have... they have been so loving and patient with me, and I don't deserve it. I've messed up and tripped several times this year. but no matter what they love me and are rejoicing with me while watching me learn from my stupid mess ups. so big shout out to my family who are all wonderful.
<---- so that was my cheesy bit of lovely right there. but seriously. GOD IS GOOD. ALL THE TIME. that right there is a fact. no matter what. :)
what else is on mah mind... THERE'S A BUNCH OF SNOWY HAPPINESS EVERYWHERE!!! YAAAAAAAAYYY!!!! Cc is super duper pleased. Except that they haven't shut down school yet. which makes her sad because then her friends can't come over and make cookies and have snowball fights. so that's a bummer. but that doesn't stop her from clobbering her siblings with snowballs... I love how I just start talking in the third person randomly... it's ridiculous. anywho. this week is looking to be pretty awesome. tomorrow I'm going contra dancing. Thursday I'm going to see white Christmas, Friday I'm going to see little mermaid, and then Saturday and Sunday I have two shows of my own. so I be a busy woman.
anyway. that's what's on my mind. I'll try to write more soon. we'll see what I can do. :)
so over and out! hope you all a had a wonderful thanksgiving. :)
oh, and that picture of the roses, yeah. those were from my show. I got 12 roses from a good friend of mine, and one rose from my secret pal. I've never gotten roses before, so that was supah awesome and amazing. and it made me happy. so there's a picture. hehehe. :)
