Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert

Last Friday night Paul and I went to the
Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas concert.
It was magnificent!
Not only did the choir sing, but the Orchestra at Temple Square, the The Bells
of Temple Square, 4 high school bell choirs, dancers from the
University of Utah,
Edware Hermann, and Brian Stokes Mitchell
proformed.
It was 2 hours of bliss.
All of the concerts at the Conference Center are free;
just order the tickets well ahead of time.

Our Red Hat Tree at the Festival of Trees

Our Red Hat ladies donated a decorated tree to the

Festival of Trees. This is a HUGE fund raiser here in Salt Lake.

All of the proceeds from the trees, wreaths and other Christmas

decorations auctioned off go to Primary Children's Hospital.

Our group made most of the tree decorations and

a few of the girls to the finishing touches.

Our Red Hat tree raised $350!!!
