Lots and Lots 'O Boxes

We did it! Operation Christmas Child- The Musical was a HUGE hit. I am so thankful for all the work put into this program by the Bergesons, Miss Patty, the choreographers, the tech crew, the costume crew, the prop crew, and especially to the kids. I am so proud of you all!

The pictures are online and look amazing. Go check them out... (click on extras, there will be a drop down list where you can choose Photo Galleries. Click on Christmas Musical)

In cast you aren't completely convinced, I'll give you a glimpse to see what you are missing...

Operation Christmas Child

The technical rehearsal was SO fun and the kids are so excited for the performance on Sunday. Hope you come out and join us at 10:30am! The tech crew would love to see you there...

So I'm not very good about keeping this here little blog updated. I guess it is because I feel like nothing very note-worthy (or I guess I should say blog-worthy?) is happening. On the contrary though, much is happening with the kids and in my life personally. Let me sumarize.

1. Operation Christmas Child. The photo does not truly represent how this project has overwhelmed my life. Not only are The Rock kids collecting boxes as well as the Sunday School kids, but we are also encouraging adults to get involved in this great ministry. I find myself constantly answering questions as to how to pack a box, what goes inside, etc. It's great. We are also preparing for Operation Christmas Child- The Musical. The characters have been practicing and perfecting their lines and I guarantee that it will be an amazing production. Stop by my office and you can catch a glimpse of all the fun props that dear Miss Nancy has been faithfully collecting!

2. Glow Night. J-Factor and Jr. High will join forces as we play Glow In The Dark Games on Wednesday night. Are you afraid of the dark????

3. J-Factor Party. Two fun activities in one week? The 5th and 6th graders will be very busy this week with our J-Factor party just mere days after Glow Night. Saturday night from 5-8pm...join us for some PIZZA, a little wiffle ball for the boys, a little crafty fun for the girls and excitement all around!!!

4. Christmas is coming soon! Which means my birthday is coming as well! Yay! I have been workin on my Christmas cards and having so much fun planning and preparing for the season.

5. This is Shari. Sometimes she visits my office when I'm not there and she takes pictures of herself with my camera. Sometimes I post the pictures online for the world to see.

The End.
