Hello, everyone!
Mrs. K. needed to change the date of our dinner to Tuesday night, Dec. 23. They are still coming here and she is still bringing potatoes. I know it will be harder with all the work things, but since they are coming here, maybe people can sort of come in and out depending on the work schedule.
Big Messiah practices tomorrow night after church and Thursday afternoon before the program on Thursday night and again on Friday. Those of you missing all the fun can pray for the ones making the fun! Looking forward to seeing everyone soon...also keep praying for Nathan and his recovery from the worst case of strep throat the doctor had every seen. I told him, he just seems to fall apart in December: last year his back, this year his throat.
Lots of snow between last night and today...hopefully it won't stay until April, like last year.
Love to all,
Mom

Update for mom's Christmas list and Kaetterhenry meal information
I was stymied for awhile about how to get onto the blog to post, and had several false tries, but with perseverence (and RuthAnn's clues way back in one of the first posts), I actually got as far as typing in a posting box!
A couple of additional ideas:
I would really like new lamp shades (three: two for the table lamps that are in the living room right now and one for the floor lamp standing around doing nothing in my bedroom). The Wal-mart ones are about 13/15/18? dollars each.
The supply of Christmas books looks a little skimpy. Perhaps some news Christmas picture books would be nice. Barnes & Noble had a whole table full of different books when Philip, Bethany, and I were in there.
The tree looks great!
Mrs. Kaetterhenry called about the annual Christmas meal between the two families. It is set for Monday night (22nd) and will be at our house (they are bringing the food here. I thought Matthew and Nathan might be here by then, and perhaps we can work around the Joshua/Naomi lesson schedule and the Joanna/Bethany work schedules to at least have everyone be in the house sometime while they are here!

RuthAnn's Christmas List
I don't really need anything, and I don't have a list of wants, so these are just some ideas. Get me whatever you want.
I do need:
New Tennis Shoes (preferably ones that will not wear away the skin on my ankles)
A hoodie (basic, Hanes, Walmart thing)
Books: use your discretion, you know my reading styles
Movies: Just the classics (To Kill a Mockingbird, Rebecca, Roman Holiday, Notorious, The Third Man, All About Eve, Strangers on a Train, etc.) or LOTR boxed sets. I don't own any yet.
String Parts for Ravel Introduction and Allegro OR Piano Transcription
Music: iTunes card?
Earring Tree?
Kensington Laptop bag/backpack. I'll post some ideas later.
Exercise Ball
Library Thing lifetime subscription
etc.
