The Christmas S.O.C.C.E.R. Team

The kids at our church put on a Christmas musical this year.  It was called The Christmas S.O.C.C.E.R Team.  S.O.C.C.E.R. stands for the Society of Christmas Carolers Emergency Rescue.  The story is about a group of soccer players who mistakenly show up for try-outs for the S.O.C.C.E.R.  The S.O.C.C.E.R. is made up of geezers who are on a mission to save traditional Christmas carols.  Because their was an old geezer choir, the parents of kids in the play were asked if they would like to participate.  Not being one to miss out on a little fun and also being willing to make a fool out of myself for my kids, I joined in.  It was SO...MUCH...FUN!

Aaron and Hannah


Molly, Montana, Galen and Rachel before the show.  Montana actually performed a clogging routine during the show and Galen was checking out her taps on the bottom of her shoes.


Jody in character.


Ms. Tracie all decked out.  She was really in character as she was putting copies of the script she had blown up so she could see in a binder.  Ha!

The cast of kids...Aaron...third from left, Matthew, Adrienne,  Rachel...fifth from right, Galen, Montana, Hannah and Molly...what a great group of performers!

Aaron and Rachel both had lead rolls.  They memorized their lines and weren't afraid at all to strut their stuff.  Hannah sang with the kids and had a Bible verse to recite at the end.  She was given another rather long verse the night before the performance because one of the other younger kids backed out.  She rocked it.  I couldn't believe how quickly she memorized it. 

I hope Mr. Adam and Ms. Rebecca will spearhead another youth drama soon!

You're such a fun mom! Also - I can't get over how much Aaron and Hannah look alike in that one picture. Good times!
