The Tony Orlando Christmas Show
Shaner got free tickets to the "Tony Orlando Christmas Show". So, being the perma-vactioners we have become, we trotted on down to Branson Friday night to watch the show. Well, let me just say it was completely different than the first concert I went to - the "Dirty Dancing" concert in my teeny bopper stage, different than the Reba McEntire concert during my country stage, and soooo different than the Metallica concert I went to during whatever stage that was! If you are like me you are saying, "OK, so who is Tony Orlando?" He had hits such as Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree and Knock Three Times - songs I actually recognize a tad bit. So, the three of us went down and decided to eat at the All-You-Can-Eat Tony Orlando Buffet before the show. We felt a bit out of place when we realized we were the youngest people there by at least 25 years!! However, everyone was so nice. They all stopped by to say hello to Brinn and admire her hair bows. One lady mentioned she doesn't even have grandchildren that young anymore! Yes, we were a bit out of place.The concert started out a little slow and cheezy, but picked up as the night went on. During the intermission more women came up to Brinn to talk, which prompted Brinn to exclaim, "THERE'S A LOT OF GRANDMAS IN HERE!" The second half of the show Santa Claus came out and performed with Tony. By this time Brinn was bouncing on Shane's lap and clapping to the music. The Santa was wonderful. His voice sounded like the Santa in the movie The Polar Express - just like what you think Santa's voice would really sound like.
Beside being so cool as to have Santa Claus on his show, throughout the show we also discovered that Tony is a very faithful and patriotic man. All in all, we had a good time. Just another one of life's lessons to be open to whatever comes your way!

Tis The Season At Bass Pro
Last night we went to Bass Pro to see Santa. Boy, they go ALL OUT! The set up is amazing. Last week we went for the official turning on the lights and they had Santa pulled up in a sleigh by two huge horses. Brinn didn't get to see him that night because all the tickets were gone by the time we got there. She did get her time with him last night though. She asked him for a "Giddy Up -N- Go Pony", a "FurReal Kitten", and a "Girl Gourmet Cupcake Maker". She said he was a very nice man! Check it out!

Budding Gymnast
My new project has been trying to figure out how to post videos to this blog and, by golly, I FINALLY figured it out! I have been trying to post one since Brinn's gymnastics class last week and could never figure it out, and as it turns out it was too large anyway. Here is one from today. I think she has her mother's sense of balance.
I hope you all are enjoying your week!
