We were so blessed to be able to see Cousin Rachel perform a solo a couple weeks ago. She had an awesome stage presence and her voice was very angelic. Vanessa was so very excited to see Rachel perform. Vanessa loves to sing and perform, but surprisingly, she gets "stage fright" when it comes to doing it in front of others. (Thanks for demonstrating great confidence, Rachel!!) Rachel's daddy and brother Joel (lower right corner of the picture) sang in the choir. Joel, too, has an amazing stage presence.
The production was so very different and so very cool. All of the pop Christmas movies were interwoven with the story of Christ's birth. The costumes and actors were awesome. How often is it that you see the Grinch standing over the manger?!
These two seem to really enjoy the entire show. Vanessa said her favorite song was "Sing Joy." She went home singing it.
I was able to capture a photo while going north on 315 at 65mph using our amazing camera. Now that's anti-blur! (Daddy was driving while I snapped shots.)
