Sounds of the season

We accomplished some more Christmas shopping this weekend. It feels nice to have so many things purchased, so early in the shopping season! We are ahead of the game. At least we will not have to go out and do a lot of shopping when we are back in the US. (12 days and counting)

I have also been "shopping" on Google China's free music download site. Since we did not have much Christmas music, I have been searching for good albums for us to listen to...as we grade papers...

Sufjan Stevens, Andrew Peterson, Chris Tomlin, Jars of Clay, Travis Cottrell, and Trans-Siberian Orchestra have all been added in recent days. It is nice to have some new variety!

Now, we are listening to Straight No Chaser - an a capella group. Rachel thinks they sound a little too peppy.

But c'mon....it's a capella. What do you expect??
