Messiah

Sylvia and Jillian didn't plan to dress exactly the same for church today, but we were all thoroughly entertained by the fact that they both wore khaki corduroys, cream turtlenecks, tassel earrings, and gray/green nail polish! 

After church, the 4 of us stopped at Culver's for lunch on our way out of town.  We got on the road towards Greenville from Bloomington, but had some extra time to kill before the concert.

Driving through Hillsboro, we stopped at CVS to get Annah some treats to help her study for finals this week.  Jeremy saw a sign for a coffee shop, so we stopped in at Black Rabbit Coffee.  It was so cute, and the coffee was yummy!

Caeden was excited to read a Calvin and Hobbes book that was on our table.

Jeremy bought me a bag of whole bean coffee to take home.

We still got to the concert early, but Joyce suggested seeing if we could sneak into the balcony while they were rehearsing.  We got great seats!  Sylvia sat behind me and braided while we waited.

President Filby welcomed the audience with an invocation.

(You can see Annah right over Dr. Wilson's left shoulder.)


It was a wonderful concert, and we are so glad we came!

Sylvia and I followed Annah up to her room.  

She decided to change clothes quickly.



We took Annah and Ryan out for pizza at Joe's before heading back home.

It was worth it to make the drive, and we really loved seeing Annah get to be part of such a beautiful performance of a timeless work of music!
