Every year my mother made the best vegetable pizza that she took…

I like to watch funny things so his acting really impressed me. The three major conflicts in this play was Santa oversleeping, losing contact with Santa, and Christmas almost…

Easter, the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus. A wonderful day every year but…

go see the Singing Christmas Trees at First Baptist Church of Orlando. Seeing this production is one of my favorite things to do around Christmas, because it is the perfect mixture of singing, dancing, and acting to get me into the holiday spirit. The show had a strong opening number as the orchestra and chorus started playing and singing ‘Joy to the World’ at strongly at forte with many harmonies. Throughout the rest of the show the orchestra played countless other Christmas songs and hymns,…
