Ring, a-ling, a-ling…

 

Brasstown Ringers

Joy and I attended a lively handbell bell ringing performance at her church yesterday afternoon.  The Brasstown Ringers once again brought a beautiful selection of music to entertain the audience, and get us all in the Christmas spirit.

Haley and I took lessons with this group a few years ago to help us with our own wee handbell playing at our church.  Unfortunately, it takes lots of practice and lots of folks to make a handbell choir, and we just don’t have enough folks dedicated to this endeavor.  Bugger.  Maybe someday we can get active again.

MM and I did run into Mrs. Claus the other night, hanging out with some old guy dressed in red, but who wasn’t Santa…but we won’t tell on her, and I know y’all will keep it a secret!

Mrs. Claus, Lamar

My sweetie and I are still working on year-end stuff.  I need to do some Christmas gift wrapping, check my list twice (you can’t check it just once), and get a few more things cleared off my desk.

It’s just another day in cold Mayberry, where we are already dreaming of palm trees and flip flops.

Life is good, y’all!

Oh I love the bells. These folks are so talented. Hard work indeed.

Yes you have to check your list twice. I do the same.

It's raining here and I'm happy about that. In fact it's supposed to rain all week. We so need it.

Have a fabulous day honey. Big hugs to you and tons of scritches to the babies. ♥♥♥

how fun! I'd be the dork with the off timed ring... then I'd drop the bell and probably swear. LOL!

Hanging out at home and resting. Nothing exciting here.

I bet the bells were just lovely! LOL at Jean's comment. That might be me, too. :)

It's been quite nice during the day, mid 60's, but who ordered all these freezing temperatures at night? Not I.

ho ho ho! big hugs xoxo
