Friday and Sunday, I spent the entire 4-9pm period of time at the festival. I accompanied for several people who were performing and stayed to listen to other performers. Friday night, they had a performance of the Messiah by the Nashville Community Choir and orchestra. There were about 90 members including choir and orchestra. It was an amazing performance. Saturday I was there for about an hour and got to hear the bell choir from Madison Street United Methodist Church of which I took a couple of pictures at the bottom. Sunday was another excellent night including the Cumberland Winds, and 4 members from 2 different country bands in Nashville who did an hour performance that was amazing. Then, there was the First Presidency Devotional broadcast which is always wonderful. Eric and the kids participated in the live nativity which was outside the church on Friday night. It was a very uplifting weekend!

So glad I caught up on your blog! I guess mine hasn't been updating it or something. Definitely sounds busy, busy, busy but I love that you take the time to share things with all of us. We are about to do a christmas/festival/nativity thing here and I think I want to take pictures like you do. What a great way to share ideas with others! It was SO great seeing you a few weeks ago and I can't wait for an excuse to see you guys again!
What a great event. The different Nativity scenes were cool. I love the sound of the bell choir when they perform.
