It's a Girl...we think.

I'll get the pics up later. We just wanted to get the word out for everyone because we're super excited that we're having a GIRL!!!!! The ultrasound tech wouldn't say it's definite because with girls it's harder to tell, but she said she's "pretty sure." I've felt like it would be a girl all along, but Danny's kind of wanted a boy. I think he's just nervous about raising a daughter in this world, but he'll be a fabulous dad.

We'll keep you posted! Right now we're off to CO (yeah, so there's a huge storm...maybe we'll just end up celebrating Christmas in Beaver, UT if the roads get too bad).

Candlight Processional at Disneyland

Amber and I got to be a part of an amazing program that's done every year at Disneyland during Christmastime. The Candlelight program is a massive choir composed of mostly high school, but some college, and community (that was us! The Riverside Community Choir) choirs from all over the place. Choirs have to send in audition tapes sometime during the fall. If chosen, they practice on their own until the week before when they meet up with the official conductor for a huge practice session. Singing with a group of that caliber was so amazing. It was even cooler (can I still use that word in 2008?) when we got to Disneyland the day of the performance and the symphony and trumpeters joined us. The trumpeters were all decked out in their Sleeping Beauty-esque costumes and were at the top of a tower near the train station when we performed. It was great!

Why is it called Candlelighters? Well, we all parade down main street holding fake candles and singing Christmas songs, and then end up at the Train Station and sing a whole program of songs with our little candles still flickering. Well, everyone else's candles were glowing brightly...mine died sometime during our second performance. Woops!

Why is there a picture of John Stamos attached to this blog? Well, he was the narrator, and that is very cool, so I added his picture (Also, I didn't take my camera that day, so I'm improvising). I used an old school picture of him because this is the Uncle Jessie that we all know and love. Ahhh, the 90's...

p.s. Can you find me in the choir picture??? (Hint: I'm on the left-ish and in the center-ish)
