Festival of Trees

We love the Festival of Trees! It's one of Bailey and Mark's favorite holiday performances each year. We love the trees, the treats, the local entertainment, and of course Santa. They performed right before the TaVacci singers, so the place was packed. We thought that would be fun, but we decided that it was too crazy, and we like it when there isn't as many people. Mark and Bailey did a great job! They learned a lot of new Christmas songs for it this year. Their set list included:

Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
Mary Did You Know
Last Christmas
Rudolph
Just One Night
He Sent a Carpenter
Santa Baby
Sweet Mary Cried
Santa Claus is Coming to Town
Christmas All Year Long

They always have so many awesome friends come and watch them. It makes it nice for them to be able to look out in the audience and see familiar faces. It's always more fun to play for people you know. 

It's so fun to see how comfortable both of them are on stage now. They used to get so nervous, but now it's just like second nature to them.
Miss Johnson came to watch her! She will always be one of Bailey's favorite people. It just goes to show the kind of influence a good teacher can have on a student's life. Bailey loved her in 4th grade, and she still loves her just as much 6 years later!
Sawyer got off work early and drove down from Rexburg to watch them perform. I wanted a picture of my kids together and this is the best they would give me. I think they thrive on pushing my buttons! Bailey broke into a huge grin during one of her songs, and I followed where her eyes were looking and saw Sawyer dancing in the back of the room. We've missed him at their performances over the past 2 years!
Some of the crew! 
Jeanne and Julie came to watch her. Two of the sweetest ladies we know! 
These two are pretty dang cute!
Bailey has the greatest friends! Emily, Mason, Bailey, Jakob, Hannah, and Gabby! 
Santa was a good sport!
