Holiday On Ice

Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Amy Grant. Ok, I will admit it, I am a fan-girl. For my birthday my cool mom bought tickets for the Holiday On Ice performance staring, you guessed it, AMY GRANT...oh yea, and Nancy Kerrigan, Michael W. Smith and some other skaters..... I did my best to take some pictures, but they are not all that clear. And since the event was being filmed for TV, I couldn't get up and take better shots. Here is what I have to share.

The Stage - it was really pretty

Nancy Kerrigan - she had a baby 3 months ago, so here jumps were not high up in the air, but she looked beautiful. My friend Barbara (also LaRae's cousin) and my mom. I had to sneak up and take my mom's picture since she does not like it much..... I like this picture as she was so enjoying herself and the skating and the company.
The blurry image in the middle is really Amy Grant. I truly love Christmas Music and I love her and skating is pretty cool too.....so, it was a perfect evening.

Amy has a new Christmas CD this year and on it she has written a new song called "I Need a Silent Night" and it is amazing...I'm a bit obsessed with it at the moment. On the CD, her 4 year old daughter Corina Grant-Gill reads the Savior's birth story from Luke and it is adorable. How cool to have your child's voice recorded for all time on a song you wrote and sang.

This is a YouTube video of Amy's new Christmas Song "I Need a Silent Night." It isn't a great quality video, so to read the lyrics, see my new widget on my blog.....Pretty cool and high tech, huh?

I hope a few of you caught the Holiday on Ice show this past Sunday at 1 pm PST....I used the trusty DVR to "tape" it for me and I've watched it a few times now, fast forwarding to Amy's parts. The show was great - fun to go out with my "girl-friends" .....just one comment...MORE AMY, less skating next time!!

Wow, That looks like a really special Christmas evening. I'm sure you were in Heaven. I like that picture of your mom. Amy's Christmas CD is very good - and I like her "I Need a Silent Night," too.

I love the picture of your Mom! I'm glad you had such a great time. I like Amy Grants music, too. But, I especially like her Christmas music.

I listen to KOST FM this time of year because it is 24 hours of Christmas music and whenever Ms. Grant comes on I think of JANET! Yay!

how fun!!! I love Amy too, she has a beautiful quality to her voice. Have you missed me???? Things have been crazy needless to say but trying to get my bearings, or should I say a few spare moments here and there to make the blogging rounds!
