:: One Week to Christmas 2005
You may have noticed the countdown timer on Meggisi was changed to a countdown to Christmas back when Camp Meggisi was closed at the end of the season this year. I picked Christmas for a countdown rather than getting rid of the timer, just becasue I think the dang countdown timer is so cool...
Anyway, Christmas is a week away, and we are well into the spirit of the season. This morning we baked Christmas cookies with my sisters-in-law and my niece. This evening we finished up most of our gift shopping. Tomorrow I think we will get our first tree!
Another Pierre tradition is to see a show during this time of year. This year it was West Side Story at the Chanhassen Dinner Theatre. Very very good, I must say. The singing was great, and the choreography was even better. Very true to it's traditional performance roots (read: "very 1959")...and being performed in the Chan made that effect even better. I also must say that all the white-bread, scandinavian, MN actors portrayed PR's pretty good...accents and all!
More traditions to come. Oooh, I just remembered a good one...I need to make Chex Mix!
