The usual request to put together a musical program for
Candlelight Lodge’s Christmas program came late this year – in fact, I thought
maybe I was off the hook. Alas, no. Not having as strong of a high school string
player connection, I decided to utilize the vocal talents of the Slade family
again. And, since Tamara and Carina were
in town, I also asked the Kitchen family.
We provided some string trio prelude/gathering music and then the
Lambson-Kitchen-Slade family choir provided some lovely carols for the program.
In addition Tamara and I each played a
solo piece on our instruments. (I
reprised my Sacrament meeting number).
This all happened on Friday, December 23rd.
Friday evening, Steve and I did our annual drive around
and look at lights. We made a point to
stop by the Holyoak’s home because Melissa had borrowed some instruments and
antique toys from me and Katherine Eschrich to decorate her themed trees for
the Symphony Society’s Holiday Home Tour.
She and Claudine Barner really went all out and her home was just gorgeous!
