The Candy Cane Lane

  Tonight we are going to the Candy Cane Lane. It is a neighborhood who each work together to light up their houses. The person in charge of the program puts occasional posters in other peoples yard illustrating things like the twelve days of Christmas. Wooden candy canes lead the way. At the end of the lane, there are carolers dressed as Santa Claus and elves giving out candy canes. The Candy Cane Lane is  located in the city of Benton.

Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker

  Grace, Rachel, and I, as said before, are in the SICC (Southern Illinois Children's Choir). We were invited to sing in SIUC's production of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker. We only had a small part though. We sang in the song Waltz of the Snowflakes. We didn't sing words but aah's. Clara (the heroin) was from the Atlanta Ballet and the Nutcracker (the hero) wasw from a ballet group in Canada. We had a lot of fun being part of it. It was at the Shyrock Auditorium which is joined to Altgel Hall. The shows were on December18th and 19th. Merry Christmas!
