For my latest holiday posts, click HERE for my  “HOLIDAY AND SEASONAL” posts – in order of the most recent, and MERRY CHRISTMAS 
The Christmas 2016 season has arrived BIG TIME! Cute home decorations are going up all over the place. NextDoor friends are looking for help with their Christmas lights. Facebook has started popping up with all sorts of cute Christmas gifs and videos. I got one of the adorable reindeer you see decorating my blog today from my sweet client, Leslie Miller, and her delightful family who have been busily making them. And I’m looking forward to decorating my Christmas tree…..in the town square – Roseville Downtown Square, that is. I’m entering/decorating a Christmas tree in the Christmas Tree Grove this year.  Let me know if you get to see it. I’d love to hear. 😉

Experience Christmas

Experience Christmas started out as the Christmas Eve services at Bayside, Granite Bay. Each year they have grown more and more popular and these “Christmas Eve” services, that are a highlight for me each year, are now starting on December 16 with over 15 services!!! This is not a traditional, quieter, sweet Christmas Eve service like I really love. This is, however, an awesome, spectacular time of celebration – which I also really love! Hurry to get tickets to reserve your seating. They are only $5 and all the money collected from these tickets goes towards Bayside’s Christmas giving projects. 🙂 AND if you don’t get tickets, still come, but come extra early. You can almost always get in – you just might not get to sit all together. This year, they are featuring world-renowned magician Justin Flom who is well-known for his YouTube series and SyFy television show Wizard Wars in which he performs magic with ordinary objects; plus Ray Johnston, Lincoln Brewster, Curt Harlow, Andrew McCourt, and Thrive Worship. CLICK HERE for more info and to order tickets. Below is a video clip of Justin Flom at the CMA Christmas Magic special.

Heaven Awakened

Heaven Awakened is a creative telling of the beloved “Christmas story” involving beautiful music, dramatic elements, dance, outstanding vocal performances, and visual media. Dec 18 at 9 and 11 am at Destiny Christian Church, 6900 Destiny Dr, Rocklin, California 95677.
