Thanksgiving and Concerts


David and I went to Utah for Thanksgiving and even did the whole Black Friday thing.  We started shopping at 11:30 PM and finally came home at 10:00 AM!  All of our Christmas shopping done in one night.  It was one of the best dates we've ever had.  It even included a 6:00 AM breakfast at McDonald's.

Thanksgiving day was fun to spend with Dana and Robert and a few other family members and friends.

Andrew and his friend, TC, Rick and Sandy (Dana's friends from the ward), Garet, Robert and Dana, Me and David, Grandpa Chambers, Grandpa Love

In December, David had concerts and recitals galore.  His composer's recital was awesome.  He composed a men's choral piece that is truly amazing.  I still am floored when I think of his dynamic personality and genuine goodness that committed more than 20 guys to come to three rehearsals a week for more than a month.  He fed them a big dutch oven dinner to thank them.  

Then, a few days later, he sang in one of the biggest concerts BYU-Idaho has done to date with guest singer, Brian Stokes Mitchell.  It was a fantastic event!  My favorite parts were The Little Drummer Boy, and Oh Come, All Ye Faithful.  Amy came to the composer's recital (We love her!) and Dana and Robert came up for both events even though they were only three days apart.  What a support team they are to us!  They even took us out to Costa Vida one night Chinese and ice cream the other.  Wahoo!
