Time to Wake up!

Hey guys, sorry I didn't post on Thursday or Friday. They were both very busy days. :) lol Anyway...

TODAY IS CHRISTMAS!!!!

I am very, very, excited!

It is 5:04am. And what am I doing up this eary? Well, my brother came in my room at 4:30am, to wake me up, and tell me that we are going to start presents at 5:30am. So, he got me up an hour early. But well, I thought since I knew that I can't get back to sleep, I would do something that made me happy. lol And that, is blogging.

Anyway, I am hoping that today or tomorrow I will post pictures of what I got from who. It will probably be tomorrow, since we are going to my Aunts tonight. So, I guess thats it for now!

Also, remember the reason that we celebrate Christmas. If it wasn't for Jesus, we would not have a reason to celebrate. :)

Remember that while you are diving into loads of presents, and eating yummy Christmas dinner, and watching the Disney Christmas day parade on TV.

Anyway, Thank you all for being great friends.

~Merry Christmas! ~Sammy

Codename Pictures

Hey Everyone!!

Well, the reason I haven't been posting much, is becasue of the Christmas play. It has been a very stressful few months for me. But now that the play is over, I can relax. Well, not really. :) Christmas is in 12 days, but after Christmas, I will be stress free! (Hopefully) Anyway, the Christmas program was last night, and it went AMAZING!! I am so proud of the cast. We got video of the whole thing, but we didn't get pictures of the play. But we did get pictures before the play. And here they are! :) Hope you like them!!

Christmas Programs Over the Years

Hey Guys!!

So, with Thanksgiving in only two days, and Christmas only a month away, I have been really looking forward to the holidays. And one of my favorite parts of the holidays, are the Christmas programs that my church puts on every year. Here are some pictures from past Christmas programs. :)

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
This is a picture of me and my friends Julia and Brianna, when we did the Christmas play, "Flower of the Holy Night" in 2006. I played Pablo, (but since I'm a girl, we changed the name to Isabelle) who was the main character. I was a poor mexican girl who wanted to give Jesus a gift, even though she didn't have anything to give. That play was a lot of fun. We bought this funky dress at goodwill, and then spray tanned my skin to make me look mexican. They also dyed my hair. It was very fun. :)

The next year, in 2007, our Church did the play called "3 Wise Men and a Baby." In this play, I played Sparklett, a french star who baked a birthday cake for Jesus. I wasn't the lead that year, but I didn't care. It was fun to be in it. In this picture, my friends Julia, Cori, and Abby and I were doing the motions to one of the songs. We were the 4 stars in the play.

In fall 2008, our church had a "split." A lot of people left, because the church wanted to do something that they didn't like, so they left to start there own church. Well, a few of the people that left were the people that directed the Children's Christmas plays. So, someone stepped up only a few weeks before Christmas, and volunteered to direct the play. The play was called "A Mouse's tale." It was very short, and since a lot of the children that were in the kids class left the church with there parents, the choir wasn't very big. So, the director asked me and my friends to be in the choir, even though we were now to old. Plus, the day before the play, the person that was supposed to play the innkeeper got sick, so, I had to learn the one line that the innkeeper had. :) lol But it was fun!

If you were following my blog last year around this time, you might remember that I wrote and directed the teen Christmas play. I wasn't in it, because I found out that I like directing the plays better than acting in them. Last years play was called "A Manger Carol" A Christian version of "A Christmas Carol." The play went amazing! And I am still super proud of everyone that turned my writing into life. :)

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
And finally, there is this year. Once again, I wrote and am in the process of directing this one. This year, it is called "Codename: The Bright Messiah." It is about the innkeepers children who want to find this Messiah that everyone is talking about, so that he can save their parents inn. They look all over Bethlehem, and find out that the Messiah is sleeping in their manger. The program is December 12th. I am super excited, and worried all at the same time. I know that some of the cast members are really excited about this, but a lot of them don't seamed as dedicated. I just hope that they learn their lines really soon. I would love it if you could all pray for the play.

Thank you all so much, and thanks for reading! ~Sammy

While you were Sleeping

Hey everyone! So, I saw this on another blog, and I thought it was really cool! What I am going to do, is take a song (uaually a hymn) and write it on here, with pictures that go with it. Tell me what you think. So, the song I am going to do today is called, "While you were Sleeping" By Casting Crowns. It is such a pretty Christmas song, and I hope you like it. :)

Oh little town of Bethlehem
Looks like another silent night
Above your deep and dreamless sleep
A giant star lights up the sky

And while you're lying in the dark
There shines an everlasting light

For the King has left His throne
And is sleeping in a manger tonight

Oh Bethlehem, what you have missed while you were sleeping
For God became a man
And stepped into your world today

Oh Bethlehem, you will go down in history
As a city with no room for its King
While you were sleeping

Oh little town of Jerusalem
Looks like another silent night

The Father gave His only Son
The Way, the Truth, the Life had come
But there was no room for Him in the world He came to save

Jerusalem, what you have missed while you were sleeping
The Savior of the world is dying on your cross today
Jerusalem, you will go down in history
As a city with no room for its King
While you were sleeping

United States of America
Looks like another silent night

As we're sung to sleep by philosophies
That save the trees and kill the children

And while we're lying in the dark
There's a shout heard 'cross the eastern sky
For the Bridegroom has returned
And has carried His bride away in the night

America, what will we miss while we are sleeping
Will Jesus come again
And leave us slumbering where we lay

America, will we go down in history
As a nation with no room for its King?
Will we be sleeping?

United States of America
Looks like another silent night


Thanks for reading!! ~Sammy

I Got a Rock

You all know me. A HUGE lover of Christmas. Around this time, we are thinking about getting ready for the holidays. This is my favorite time of the year, because it is Holidays 24-7 until New Years. Right now, there is Halloween stuff out in stores. Once that is finished with, Thanksgiving will be here, and once Thanksgiving is done, it is Christmas CRAZY until New Years. Then, it starts to slow down-until Valentines day. :) Anyway, I don't want to rush you all, but I have been thinking about my favorite holiday movies. And what I am going to do, is a couple times a month (Maybe once a week) Until Christmas, I am going to post previews of my favorite holiday movies. Well, today, I am going to do one that EVERYBODY has seen before. It is a classic. :) It is, "The Great Pumpkin" :)



This is my favorite scene from the movie. My mom loves this movie so much, we have watched it twice already this year, and I'm sure that we have not seen the last of it. :) lol Anyway, thanks for stopping by! Hope you have a great week!!! ~Sammy
