As anticipated, this weekend was quite lovely. Friday I had the day off work and did some Christmas shopping. I was looking forward to the weekend as it was the Christmas Choir / Orchestra celebration at church. I played my clarinet in the orchestra and did quite well, despite having put a chip in my reed first thing Sunday morning. So I had to switch to a new reed which came with a few low-key squeaks but tried to keep them under control. The music was all for God's glory, anyway. Oh, I just remembered from a previous post that I had said I was a 1/7th a viola. That is because one of the songs we played, my part said clarinet 2 (substitute for viola). I thought I sounded like a viola, too. All who participated did a great job giving Him glory as I am sure He enjoyed every minute of every service. The thing that sticks out to me is how we should keep Christ at the center of Christmas amidst all of the hustle and bustle. The pastor did a very nice message on the song of Simeon.
Oh and also on Saturday morning, I went to my niece's last basketball game of the season where they beat the other team 31-10. She scored a couple baskets and had a nice save so the ball would not go out of bounds.
I know this next couple sentences are off the subject but I must mention it. The blazers win, the blazers win again!!! On Sunday, they played in Denver against the Nuggets and beat them. I was at the game tonight and we beat the Hornets 88-76. Eight wins in a row...how do they do it?? I see that we play the Nuggets again this Friday at home. Wouldn't it be nice if we win on Wednesday night and Friday night...that would be 10 in a row! We'll just have to wait and see.
