"In everything give thanks......." 1 Thess 5:18

Our journal and glimpses of an active, contented life in country Australia

Saturday, December 10, 2011


Have a list of things to do around the house today, but raining this morning.


I got a couple of photos from our concerts on Thursday


 and Friday


The residents are enjoying singing the old Christmas favourites.. Silent Night, Away in a Manger, Little Town of Bethlehem, Mary's Boy Child, When a Child is Born etc and some of the Christmas songs Jingle Bells, Australian Jingle Bells, Silver Bells, White Christmas etc etc.
 
At the Aged Care, one of the Activity Officers, Margaret was putting the finishing touches to a 'handprint' Christmas tree. They had drawn around every resident's hand on yellow card, and cut them out and added their name.  Featuring bright green glitter on the fingers, it was very effective, and lovely for the residents to see their hand on the tree.  I will get a photo of it when we go there next Thursday to entertain at their family Christmas Party.

We parked behind the music shop on the way and while Barry nipped in,  I thought the bridge we had just travelled over looked interesting from  this aspect so took this pic through the windscreen. It was too bright really for a good shot.
 Trusting all going well with you and yours in this Christmas Season.

Love and God Bless xx

PS: if you are wondering why the photos are just of us, I took a couple of photos at a home last year and was then reminded not to post any photos with faces showing, so have not taken any more of residents.
