Full Time RV Living - Evans Escapades - Gearing up for Christmas Excitement!

What a difference a week makes.

After a quiet, and uneventful time last week, this week has been hopping. . .

Dave’s sister was performing at the Houston Heritage Society’s Candlelight Festival at Sam Houston Park in Downtown Houston, and got us free tickets for Saturday night. . . thanks Sis!

IMGP1261

It was really great, and we highly recommend that you make plans to attend if you are in the area at Christmas time. . .Sam Houston Park is located on Buffalo Bayou with the downtown skyscrapers creating a backdrop.

IMGP1255

There was a huge crowd, and a long line waiting to hear the Houston Boy’s Choir perform in this old German Church. . .

IMGP1262

The boy’s choir has been performing at this event for over forty years. . .

IMGP1253

Carolers entertaining the crowd

 

IMGP1265

This gentleman was set up on the porch of an old log cabin, letting the kids sign their names with a quill and ink. . .they really seemed to be enjoying the experience. . .

IMGP1247

There are several different eras of Houston History represented in the restored homes in the park. . .this is the Staiti Home, circa 1913. . .and was where our sis was performing. . .they told me I couldn’t take pics inside. . .but here is a You Tube Clip of the performance. . .Mary is the gorgeous one on the far right. . .it’s only a couple of minutes long!

 

 

Now on to the rest of our week. . .

It’s time for the Kid’s Christmas Drama at church. . .so of course, we want to help wherever we can. . .which just happens to be the props department. . .

 

IMGP1268

 
 
 
 
 

One of the Dads did the cutouts. . .so this is what we started with. . .

 
 

IMGP1271

and here was the finished product. . .it doesn't look like it in this pic, but it really is painted a beautiful gingerbread caramel color

some of the Moms were going to finish glittering it up and such. . .

IMGP1269

While I worked on the Gingerbread House,

Dave took on the Castle and did a really great job. . .

I wish I could show you, but my pic of the finished product didn’t come out. . .

I’ll take more Sunday Morning, so you can see how wonderful it turned out. . .

 

In addition to painting props, this week,

our son celebrated his 35th birthday, (good grief)

so on Wednesday night we had all of them over for soup and cornbread that I had made, and a delicious homemade cheesecake that his better half Lori had made. . .

 

it was wonderful, and worth every delectable calorie. . .

I can assure you that these poor old bodies are not used to all that exercise,

and we are feeling it today. . .

so we are taking it easy until our grandson’s basketball game this evening. . .

check in next week to see how he did!

Full Time RV Living–Tips and Tricks–Getting packages on time!

Today I want to share an excerpt from a fellow RV’ers blog. . .

This was written by Greg White – Our Rv Adventures

And now for another installment of . . .

Things Every RV’er should have:

Today I’m going to tell you about a service, and not a gadget. It’s Amazon Prime, a special service from Amazon.com, and we find it invaluable while traveling full-time.

The bad news is that it costs $80 a year, but the good news is that if you order a lot, or want to order a lot from Amazon it will save you money.

But in our case, we also like the time it saves us. Time, as in how long it takes to order and receive something.

And Amazon sells pretty much everything.

Having never heard of Amazon Prime. . .I decided to check it out.  Getting packages delivered in time has been an obstacle since we have been fulltiming. . .so I decided to give it a shot.  I am really, really liking it.

We normally stay put at least three or four days. . .so far, everything I’ve ordered has shown up as advertised.

Hope you find this info useful,

Janice

 


Save on all the things you love to do!
