This is a busy time of year, and though it isn't as busy for me as it has been in past years, my to-do list still seems longer than the hours in the days. However, I find that when I spend time to focus on the reason for the season, I can feel the joy of Christmas and the tasks-at-hand fall back into their proper place. This week I had the opportunity to attend some wonderful events, and I'd love to take you along for a virtual tour:
Let's start at the Conference Center on Temple Square in Salt Lake City, Utah, last Friday night. The Tabernacle Choir joined with the Orchestra at Temple Square and the Bells on Temple Square, along with dancers and guest artists Kelli O'Hara and Richard Thomas, to present a spectacular Christmas concert. Although I couldn't record any of the performance, the following 2-minute video from the church provides an overview:
The last time John and I had attended a Christmas concert by the Tabernacle Choir, they were still holding those conc…
Looks like you had fun with this challenge - love your photos.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I did have fun.
DeleteYour photos are fabulous! I can see why you wanted to link up to this blog hop. I did link up too. Thanks for letting me know about this challenge.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I was just so excited to find some water!
Deletenice images. We have enjoyed a little water here the last day or two.
ReplyDeleteRain is wonderful!
DeleteNice photos! I too visited a theme park close to me, not as special as Disneyland though. They all came out pretty cool too! I like the spiderweb picture, it came out very cool.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Disneyland is a special place, but I enjoy other theme parks, too.
DeleteHa, yeah, I heard you guys got some rain in California! Very clever to ask for a snow theme - let's see what happens :-)
ReplyDeleteToo bad you had through all the trouble of visiting Disneyland to take those cool shots!
Well, you know, anything for a good photo. :-)
DeleteThese are SO GOOD. I especially love the spider web one - that is excellent! And the castle in the water is awesome!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteWhat great shots! The water droplets on the spider web is really interesting.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter pointed it out to me, and we stopped so I could take the shot.
DeleteKristi your photos are wonderful! Sure do wish we could get some much needed rain here.I think you got rain when we didn't the last time. We were supposed to but it just didn't get this far south. thanks for sharing your pictures! They inspire me.
ReplyDeleteHaven't visited a Disney theme park in years and your peeks at some easy-to-overlook details have me thinking about a return visit now that I'm into photography. I especially like the reflection of the castle and the water drops on the spider's web - that one's a tough shot to get properly in focus (yes, the voice of unsuccessful experience :-) ). Hope your December wish comes true.
