MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Greetings from Station H!

I want to thank you for all your comments, and I really appreciate it when I see some new ones! Please add yourself as a follower of my blog!

This week's 'recipe of the week' is called Cappuccino Drink Mix. It is so yummy! (I'm drinking some as I write!) But I'll get to that later!

This past Sunday Jared and I, plus several other kids sang in a kids' choir in our church's Christmas concert. We sang the song "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day". This is new arrangement by the Christian band Casting Crowns. And we also sang "Who Would Imagine a King" --this version here is by Whitney Houston.

This coming Sunday, another group of kids that Jared and I are involved with, is singing in a worship group at church during the 8:15 am and 11:15 am services for our church's annual Sunday School program. You all know where I mean, and I hope you can come and see us at church on Sunday morning!!

Jared and I attend a scouts-type group at our church. It's called Christian Service Brigade, and it is similar to Boy Scouts. It's a lot of fun! I'm in Battalion, and Jared's in Stockade. Last night we had our third annual Brigade Christmas Party, but this year is Jared's and my first time ever attending, since we just joined Brigade in September! This year has been so much fun for both of us!! Last night was fun, our Christmas party was pretty routine in a fun way. We had typical Christmas party food while Ranger Chevrette read us a story called "Stephens Feast" It's a really good book!

Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy

Finally a picture of those trains I was telling you about!

I've gotta go now. I'll post again soon, I hope.

In the meantime please enjoy this week's "Nathan's Recipe of the Week". Bye
