The Big Dance

Hannah and her pals Stephanie (L) and Wesley (center) went to the big War Dance Formal Friday night at the GP War Memorial. Seemed so strange to see Hannah in heels and a dress. They had a great time even though (I think) they didn't dance with any boys.

We went to see Melani and the Mosaic Singers/Youtheatre in "Woodward Wonderland" at the DIA last night. So glad we went. Amazing singing and hilarious skits. They did a parody on Chilly Willy in the Thanksgiving Day Parade, a funny takeoff on Church Christmas pageants and a very sentimental look at the old Hudson's. The kids even did a rendition of the old Motown Christmas shows with the Temptations, Jackson Five and Aretha Franklin. Really put you in the holiday spirit.

We got eight inches of snow last night. There were only 44 people in church today. Dan and Jackson are out driving now so Jackson can get some practice cruising in the snow. He'll probably get his license in February so the more time behind the wheel, the better.

I went over to CCS yesterday. I'm 75% done with a great overshot piece with gorgeous silk yarns. I'm anxious to see it done. The class has ended for the year but I'd like to finish this piece up. It is very peaceful weaving alone over at CCS. I do miss the hub bub of the crazy students. They crack me up with their self-induced stress and constant chatter.

At home, I am weaving a Creole pattern on a scarf. I think it is going to be a present for my new next door neighbor if I finish it before Christmas.

Off to Chicago tomorrow for yet another Crain Christmas party.
