Merry Christmas 2011

We want to wish all our friends and family a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the Van Houten family!  We used to send pictures of the girls on postcards, but last year we posted a singing Christmas card here on the blog and everyone seemed to like it a lot.  So, back by popular demand... here are the girls in their Christmas performance earlier this month.  First, is Charlotte -- singing O Holy Night.  Poor thing was sick as a dog at this performance -- if you look closely you can see how red her nose is.  She'd caught a bad cold 2 days before the concert and was pretty miserable.  We didn't even know if she could sing, but she knocked it outta the ballpark.  Be sure to watch to the end -- where she pulls out all the stops! I was so proud of her!!!

 
And here are both of my lovely daughters, singing their beautifully harmonized version of "Silver Bells" ~

 

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!!!
