Our Weekend

Friday night was the High School Christmas play. Do you think this picture is a foretelling of things to come??????

Well, the end result was a "girl" and a really good play!!!

Ashley played a "Hispanic" 9 month pregnant mall worker whose husband (otherwise known as Gideon Stence) worked at the Little Caesars in the mall! She did such a great job with her acting and her Spanish. She did the entire play in Spanish and I was very proud of her!! They all did a great job but ESPECIALLY Ashley.
Then Saturday was the Christmas parade. This is where you would have found me at the parade!!

Then Dave and I went shopping for a few more Christmas decorations and some groceries. We also made an unplanned stop at the Chilis in Jupiter but I will have to let Ashley explain that one!!!!!
Sunday was a full day as is usual. Church in the morning, the girls had to go to the Island to sing with the choir and then church in the evening. "Hot" church, by the way!! We are now in the tabernacle and it was rather "warmish"!!!
We were surprised on Friday night with a call from David. It was 6 am for him and about 15 degrees!! "Too cold for this Florida boy" was his exact words!! Anyway, a brief call to let us know he was fine and would probably call the next time on Christmas Day. Then Sunday morning sitting in SS, Dave got a text from Christa asking us to call her right away. David had called her and had experienced some "trouble". I won't go into details but please, please pray for him and the ones he is with. You can always say a prayer for this family including Christa. I won't even begin to explain the emotions we go through but just ask for your prayers!
I am hoping to finish the Christmas decorating tonight and then the Singing Tree is this week along with College Finals for Carrie!! Another crazy week but hey, it's Christmas - what do you expect?!?!?!?!

We always enjoy the H.S. Christmas play and again this year, we were not disappointed--Ashley was great!! I have been thinking a lot about what you said in Sunday school about David. I can't even imagine. I have definitely been praying for his safety and emotional strength during this time.

Looks like a great play. Would love to get the script for it since I'm in charge of our high school play. I'm always on the lookout!
Can't imagine all the emotions involved this Christmas season. I will be praying for all of you!
