Christmas pageant notes

[jay]

My three kids will be in a Christmas pageant on Wednesday, 12/22 from 6-6:45pm at St. Timothy's Episcopal Church in Mountain View. They're actually doing a meta-pageant, story about a family stranded in a blizzard seeking shelter and finding a pageant rehearsal, so it has both the usual roles and separate family roles... James, my oldest, is the father while David and Kevin are rehearsing shepherds in the story-within-a-story.

Anyone local is welcome to join us for the show in a couple of weeks... we'll be getting dinner afterwards, but it is early enough that anyone interested in joining us could still make it afterward to dawnd's for carolling, or to sunset_and_port. And I don't have skating that Wednesday...

Other notes... gender roles, with all of the little girls cast as angels (white flowing robes... and *sparkly wands*??), the little boys as shepherds (immediately recasting themselves as Jedi knights as soon as they put on the robes). Why no little boy angels? Never mind, I know the answer... too uncool in little-boy social circles ;).

Carolling? Wow. That sounds delightful.

I've been exhausted after work lately, but still -- that sounds nifty. I shall hope to make it.

what Caltrain station would I need to be at and by what time in order to make the pageant?

and is walking from the Caltrains station an option, or do I need to arrange a ride?

They've just never seen images of big-assed archangels with swords.

I'm very proud of the boys. I'm sure they will be wonderful. Bye the way. I'm still looking for Jamie's Christmas list. Please have him send it right away.

Love you all.
