Today was Sunday - as usual - we went to church.....a little bit more excited today than maybe a normal Sunday would be. We are always excited to go to church - but today - after the 9:00 service - we were heading downtown to the Toyota Center for "Disney Live"! Jake was so excited - he could hardly contain himself.
Church was great - Deniese, my sister, had written another great Christmas skit/drama - it was awesome. Jake had a "Happy Birthday Jesus/Christmas party in his classroom...it was a fun day......10:45 AM - Jake is ready to go - "let's go Mommy - it's time for Disney Live".
Jake adores Winnie the Pooh and Tigger too - there was also Handy Mandy, Little Einsteins and Mickey Mouse/Minnie Mouse, Goofy and Donald Duck!!!
We took Nana and Pop - they just stared at Jake's face the whole time because he was in "awe" that the characters were "really on stage". He kept saying - Mom - they are waving at me!!!!!!!(ummm - yeah - ok - you and 6,000 other kids)...LOL
We danced, sang and waved our hands at everyone (ok - we drummed a little bit too - ok - we drummed ALOT!).....the joy on his face was breathtaking......even daddy was in awe.....I watched as my husband looked his son with such love and adoration on his face.......a kodak moment.
No pictures as they don't really allow you to take pictures while the show is going on - but it was a magical moment.
3 more days until Santa comes and brings Jake another set of drums - can you even believe that!!!!! Help me Lord. I cracked up laughing when the box arrived and my husband said "surely that is not the drums". I laughed so hard because I guess he thought they were going to be put together for him.......now, he is going to be trying to put them together on Christmas eve".......they came in one box - so you can imagine the parts!!!!!!!
Have a blessed week!
love to all of you

oh Karen, all of this really is magical huh? The innocence of a child. The love between family members, and just to think God is watching us with that same glow (or so we live to hope that he is). I am looking forward to seeing y'all on Wednesday.
lol Tell Mark he needs to have Trent show up on Christmas Eve. They will be with Denise and that isn't too far!
We loved taking our's to fun things like Disney. Glad Jake had so much fun.
Oh I know my little boy enjoyed that and I would have loved to have seen NaNa & Pop just watching him. I am so glad that they were able to go and do that with yall especially the Miracle of NaNa feeling like going after her bout with the nasty word cancer this year. We had church both services yesterday for some reason our pastor did that........LOL you see only I better say that as he is my son-in-law......HA HA I guess a person like me needs all the church I can get.....We did have a good day though and I am so glad I know the real Reason for the season. I too love all the little Disney shows, etc seems like just yesterday I was doing that with the older Grands and Kristi.
See you guys soon!!!!! Can't wait.
love,
Grammy
