Just Stuff.... Oh! And Ruby Tuesday!

First... Is ANYBODY else having MAJOR problems with Firefox? I use it as my primary explorer -- but lately it has been for THE BIRDS! Well, actually -- ever since I downloaded the most recent edition - which was about 2 or 3 weeks ago. Since then it crashes about 400 times a day! And as of today it won't open for me at all -- or ONLY to my homepage and as soon as I try to go ANYwhere, it crashes! I'm so fed up! I uninstalled it one day last week and then re-installed in hopes that that would fix it -- but nope. It didn't. BUT... it doesn't do it except VERY rarely on my laptop. Now, my laptop uses Vista... and I'm wondering if Mozilla is planning to leave XP in the dark... Grrrrrrrr....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So in church Sunday our Sunday School kids put on their Christmas service! It was so stinkin' cute I couldn't stand it! Not one of those children is related to me - but I was almost in tears I was so proud of 'em! Oh yea... I was takin' pictures just like every mother there! Only I had to get 'em ALL! LOL! So... yea... I'm gonna share!

First, the older kids put on a little skit called "Sign of the Times"... in which they were looking for "signs" that lead the way to our new born Savior.

Of course, the first sign was NO VACANCY!
(poor Mary & Joseph...)

Another one was "Angels Ahead"...
Thankful were those shepheards

And of course the 3 Kings followed the star -- it was another sign! And then the last sign was, of course, The Baby Himself, lying in the manger... And the older kids all sang This Will Be A Sign ... and it was beauuuuuuutiful! (this, by the way, is our youth players - they are called First Act)

THEN came the Littles!
*3 & 4 year olds*

Here they are actually "supposed" to be singing along
with the older kids on a song!
The one little angel up front IS singing!

This is what was going on while Sign Of The Times
was taking place! LOL!
*notice the one has her shoes kicked off!*

But HERE they have it ALL together! And they sang
Rockabye, Jesus and Away In A Manger
absolutely PERFECTLY!
Ohhhh they were so cute!

It was just a great service! Not the kind I want to have EVERY week -
but certainly worth having once or twice a year!

AND we sang O Come, All Ye Faithful and Go Tell It On The Mountain!
It was just great! I LOVE a good church day!

RUBY Tuesday is hosted by Mary, The Teach
It plays every Tuesday! (duh!)
If you want to play along, sign her linky!

The angels are all very sweet and Amanda and Luz look so cute together !

I have no problem with Firefox at all (more with IE for pictures) it works good it's strange that you have problems with it.

Oh, Mercer Meyer -- good choice of reading material!

I thought it was MY computer!! because it's old...now I know better!
Love those cute little angels and the picture of your two girls is adorable!!

I've been getting a pop-up window about installing the new edition of Firefox but I keep clicking "later." Now I am afraid to install it!!

We have a "Peewee" choir of little ones who sing a few times a year. I'm the same way -- I don't have a child that age, but I love to watch them. So cute!!

Up until now I have no problems with Firefox, and I don't think I will install that latest version now that I learned about your problems!
Those angels look sooooo cute, I love it! Especially the one with the kicked off shoes!! Too funny!
I love your Ruby Tuesday picture, wonderful!

Your Luz is so cute reading with her Mommy.

Ella is having a grand time with Nicole. I can't wait to get there to see what adventures are in store for the rest of us...

Kids and Christmas could it get any better?

I'm having Firefox issues too. It freezes up on me and acts like I'm not online...the pages won't load. If I shut it down and restart it works fine...but I always have about ten tabs open and can't ever get back to them all! What a pain!!

I've been okay with Firefox, but....last week Thunderbird just erased all my email files. Gone! Poof! I could not believe it! Had I backed it up? No! Shoot! I sure have now.
I want my Amanda to be a Mommy!

Melli, you have been having great fun too! I love looking at your pcitures.

Great Sunday School pictures. I was so proud of the preschoolers. they were at an hour practice before the service and were up front for the service. They had a time being still and one child said loudly I want to sit with my mommy.

Kids can always be fun to watch, but Christmas time takes it to a whole new level. :)

By Blogger Cherie, at 12/16/2008 2:15 PM  

Oh it is great isn't it? I too love to watch Irene be a mom. It just makes whatever the world is like outside our doors ....well, it makes the world so much better doesn't it? [LOVE the raggedy ann doll too!!!]

And the little ones at church....so darned adorable.

That Christmas show, Melli, must have been wonderful to watch! Your daughter and her daughter are sweet! Oh and did you receive the bookmarks? :)

Nice of you to share the Sunday School program with us. I love Sunday school programs we had one Sunday as well. My daughter was up to her neck in helping run it.

By Blogger Dr.John, at 12/16/2008 5:43 PM  

Woops! I forgot. Firefox works fine for me but I have Vista. It certainly works better than explorer.
You need to contact them and tell them your trouble.

Wonderful shot of your daughter and grand daughter... and of all those adorable kids at church.

I don't know if I have the very latest Foxfire or not - they seem to update me automatically, but I have been having more problems than I used to and it is annoying. I've been having trouble with my cable box too but I'm hoping it will hold out until next year as I'm sure they'll hit me up for an extra $40 or $50 to replace it. Sigh.

I enjoyed your Christmas favorites too.

By Blogger Raven, at 12/16/2008 8:01 PM  

I love the little ones :)

and your daughter and Luz are so beautiful

I so miss the traditional church for this reason. I love the kids' programs and I am a SAP whenever there are kids performing whether they are mine or not.

Sooooo sweet!!
