The first photo is a daytime photo of our church.  The decorations are so lovely.

Katriel had to be at church by 4 for rehearsals.  The children’s choir she joined on a whim turned out to be an amazing opportunity for her to offer her gifts and talents to our Christmas celebrations.

Many a Butler child has offered musical gifts, but this year, it is Katriel alone who graced the stage.

My heart was full.  She kept herself smiling all the time.

As we arrived home we got to see the beautiful candles that lined the whole track.  Marie and Stewart went to get ours this afternoon.  It is an HOA thing.  People walked the neighborhood to visit and have treats together.  We missed it because of the concert, but we were very blessed by the concert.  You sometimes just can’t do everything!
