11 Pipers Piping.

This morning Samuel's fifth grade chorus had a show on the square of Dahlonega. Melissa, him and I got into our jeep liberty (our only car that's only been in the shop once) and we went to the square. I was feeling as tired as ever but I still wanted to go and see my little brother and his classmates sing cute christmas songs. On the drive there Samuel rambled about how excited he was and how he couldn't sleep last night due to his excitement. He is so cute! When we finally got there Samuel jumped out and Melissa and I went to find somewhere to park. After finding somewhere and walking to the spot where all the little fifth graders and their parents were gathered around I thought "I really hope this doesn't suck". I could tell all the kids were excited. They were all wearing matching shirts, santa hats, reindeer ears, and bells on their wrists. It was all so cute! The first song they did was Twelve Days of Christmas, each kid had their own line. There were 13 kids there total. When it was each kids turn they sung their line and did a cute hand gesture. It came to Samuel and he said in his fast voice "Eleven pipers piping" while he make the movements of a flute with his hands. It was so precious. As I watched these kids sing carol after carol and enjoy themselves to the fullest I realized what a joy singing and being involved with things are. The kids cut up and sang their hearts and jingled their bells. When it was all done I was happy I got out of bed and dressed myself in sweet pants and a sweetshirt to see this show. After it was over Melissa asked Samuel and me if we wanted to go the fudge factory to get some fudge, of course Samuel right away blurted "SURE!" We walked over the store and as we walked in we all got a big whiff of all sorts of sweats. Samuel walked around joyfully trying to decide what he wanted while Melissa and me simply decided we wanted hot chocolate. While we waited we cut up and talked about coming up Christmas Plans and old memories. We entertained the lady working there every so often when we told a funny story. Also while we were waiting I asked Melissa if I could drive home and she told me I could so I immediately couldn't wait to leave. We drove home and Melissa didn't have to help me once, which is good cause usually she has to remind me of things. That was all in about two hours, but it was still a good morning I got to spend with my fabulous step mom and adorable little brother!
