Tinsel Town

Mommy's display case looks great - it's late here, but we're still working on the new series for tomorrow.  Here's the logo:

It should be pretty good!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!  Join us at KidPak this festive month as we look back on some of our very favorite holiday movies!  We'll relive those classic moments and learn a thing or two from the Bible, laughing all the way.  It's the most wonderful time of the year at KidPak - join us for Tinsel Town!

It was a long, long work day.  We did so much in plans for our service tomorrow, which has a theme of "Arthur Christmas," but some other surprises too.  Along the way, we were doing quite a bit of work on our new Christmas-themed stage, and cleaning out that prop room to the best of our ability.  We also got to play with some Light Brite sets for an upstairs illustration tomorrow.  We're not sure of the details, but we had fun doing our brief assignment:

Also, Madison was busy wrapping presents for our stage.  Although... maybe some of that wrapping needed a bit of help...

So it was a really full day.  Unfortunately, it didn't end for poor Madison when she got home.  She did go to bed with a cough, but that cough was relentless.  It kept going and going all night long.  Daddy actually moved in and slept on the floor next to her, periodically lifting her into a position that was more like sitting up in bed while sleeping - that way the drainage wouldn't be so much that she'd keep waking up gagging and coughing.  She was feverish all night long.  We had her on medication and something to help with the cough - but Daddy and Madison didn't get as much sleep as we'd like.  By Sunday afternoon, if this is still around, we'll have to head back to the doctor's office for sure.  One thing is certain:  Sunday will be a real day of rest for Madison.  She and Mommy will stay at home and stay warm - and probably stay medicated.

Again, we consider the timing.  Hate to see anyone ill, but being ill on a holiday or on a vacation or special trip is another matter.  Fortunately, the timing is such that we can simply rest tomorrow.  Or, at least Madison can rest tomorrow.  As for Daddy, he's got a big service tomorrow with not much sleep.  It will be a great one though - we're ready to head to Tinsel Town!
