Christmas Drama's

Our 3 oldest Children have been involved in Drama Club at the Church and on Dec 14th had the opportunity to present a drama written and directed by one of my Best Friends Amanda Moss. She also did the painting of Mary and Joseph in the following Photo. This was the display at the back of the church for the drama entitled "Jesus, Lord at Thy Birth" It was very well written and the children all did a fantastic job on their parts. The angel visits Mary...Angel played by our Pastors son and Mary by our daughter, Rachael.The angel visits the Shepard's... Reuben, our son is the Shepard in the blue.Hannah our Daughter was an angel...she is on the end with her arms raised.
Back Row Angels: Hannah our daughter, our Pastors son, and our cousin's son.

Front Row: Amanda's brother, and our Daughter Rachael.
We are very proud of our children for participating in this Drama. Remember, Jesus is the reason for the Season!

Reuben with his class...He absolutely refused to wear a suit to the concert LOL Said it wouldn't be cool *sigh* (I wanted him to dress right up)
It is such a busy time of year with Concerts, drama's and banquets. We did manage to get away to see the Drama my parents were involved in at their church. They did a fantastic job and we had the opportunity to see friends and family we hadn't seen in a long time.

What a BLIZZARD

♫ Oh the weather outside is frightful......but this fire is so delightful.......♫

The Christmas Holidays started out with a good ole Canadian Blizzard! According to news reports this will be the first time since the 70's that there will be a white Christmas from one end of Canada to the other!! We got hit hard...lots of ice, snow and wind. Here are a few pictures of the Blizzard of 08!

This was the beginning of the blizzard around 7 pm!

By midnight...it looked like this!
The next morning, we found out that a lot of people had no power for over 11 hours and we had no phone service. Hubby's work was cancelled and this was around 8am when he tried to snow blow the driveway a bit. You can just barely see the snow blower in this pic.

Here he was trying to dig out our van in case he got called to work. It was a complete white out for a while. The wind was howling and snow mixed with ice pelted down on him as he tried to clean the yard some. I am blessed that I have a Hubby that will take care of things like this for us. It was so cold!

Hubby came to the door looking like Jack Frost...or the abominable Snowman LOL. Hard to believe he and his 3 brothers drove to Quebec later that day to pick up their other brother from the airport to bring him home to NB in time for Christmas! Thank God that they made it safely home and had no mishaps along the way. My other brother in law (my sister's hubby...was stranded in Toronto for 2 days trying to get a flight home for Christmas!)

You know it's a bad storm when your glasses are stuck to your face with ice!!

Ice built up on Hubby's glasses after we had taken some off!

We are so thankful and fortunate that we all survived this blizzard and that God's protection was upon our loved ones as they travelled the highways in this storm. Thank you to everyone who kept Hubby and his brother's in their prayers as they travelled home. They were a pretty tired bunch when we picked them up in Freddy LOL
