Our first concert was on Saturday, December 20th. This is the Children's Choir practicing before the show. My former companion, Sister Walker did a great job conducting and preparing them. They did a wonderful job!

 The Adult Choir is rehearsing prior to the performance. There were over 60 people in the choir!

Bishop Seamon from the Quincy 1st Ward where I have been attending the last several months is at the piano getting  the choir warmed up! I wished that I could be in two places at once in this concert because I would have loved to sing in the choir in addition to leading the bell choir!

Elder Marshall the conductor talking to the group prior to the show!

 After the concert, my niece and her family - The Hills - came to visit on their way to see Marc's mother in Mt Pleasant, Iowa. Jenny and family live in Lexington, Kentucky! I was so happy to see them - even for an hour. She brought me her Mom - Pat's Christmas carmel corn too which I love!
