Happy Holidays!
One of my favorite things about the holidays is all the traditions that abound. There are trees to be decorated, that favorite album to be played, cookies to be baked, stockings to be hung...
There are traditions that go back to our childhood or ones that we have made as the years have progressed.
Our family is no different. We have many things that are "must do's" during the holiday season and I would like to share one with you.
This tradition is fairly new for us, but one I am pretty sure will be with us for years to come. Several years ago our daughter introduced us to an group of musical performers called The Coats. She had heard them at an event while she was attending P.L.U. and she immediately fell in love with their amazing harmonies.
According to their website, "The Coats started on the street corners of Seattle's famous Pike Place market. Singing for tourists, locals, and fellow buskers, their humble ambitions of earning a few clams to fight off the tuition bills quickly evolved into a full-time international performance career."
One fall, our daughter heard that they put on a Holiday Concert and asked for tickets for her birthday. She received them, we all went to the show, and a tradition was born. Yep, we have been to the concert every year since - as a matter of fact I think this is our 5th year!
The Coats will be performing again this December, so if you want to enjoy some holiday spirit consider checking out one of their shows.
