Christmas show - 2011 |
Hi Mom, You were with us today. Dad and I went to the annual Christmas show at Cornwell's Turkeyville Dinner Theatre, produced by Top Hat Productions.
You love these Christmas shows.
I may post my review later, after it appears in the newspaper, but here's a few thoughts.
Above is a picture of Dad and me with producer Dennis McKeen.
As you can see, he is wearing a very festive suit.

It was a very sweet dedication. Both Dennis and Holly have lost their mothers in recent years, and both were sympathetic to our feelings, especially as Dad and I attended the first Christmas show without you.
But even before the tribute, I was already pretty wrecked as the cast closed the show by singing Jeff Buckley's "Hallelujah."
I love that song.
But it really made me weep, this time especially.
Also, I did some shopping in BOTH gift shoppes in your honor, Mom. I didn't buy anything, but Dad did. He bought a gift for Lori.
I wish you had been there physically, Mom, though I felt you embracing me, all around me, around us, in spirit.
It's early, but Merry Christmas.
Here's a video of "Hallelujah." I chose a version with four part harmony to try to recreate what they did at Turkeyville.

Have someone give you a kiss, and tell you that I love you.
Talk to you tomorrow, Mom.
