October!

Hello! I can't believe that it's October already! Everything is going really well and we're all having a lot of fun at the show. We are now performing every Sunday, Wednesday and Friday at 3:00. (We used to be on Monday, so I thought I'd make that clear!)

We did something so fun last Sunday, October 4th! We had a benefit show for Christian Action Ministries, (CAM), and the community and visitors brought 780 food items to one show! How great and amazing when everyone works together to accomplish something so important. It was a good feeling for everyone to be helping others and the show was so enjoyable for all of us.

It was such a beautiful day today. The sun was shining and it was warm with a nice cool breeze. What a perfect day for so many things. I actually spent some time just relaxing outside for a bit before I went in for my show today. What a blessing to have down-time and just be able to appreciate the beauty of the outdoors. :) I got some pictures of my very pretty mums, too! They are such amazing flowers! So fun to have flowers blooming in the Fall.

We are already working on Christmas music for the show. I'm really looking forward to everything we're going to do! I'm not going to spoil any surprises, but it will be quite beautiful and full of Christmas Spirit! :) I hope you can all come out to see it!

I just looked at the weather report, by the way, and boy am I glad I got to be outside for a little bit today. We are supposed to have a lot of rain tomorrow and Friday, and the temperatures are supposed to get a bit cool! Well, I don't know why I thought it should be something different with it being October and all!

I hope you're all having a great start to your Fall season. :) Thank you for visiting with me and have a pleasant day!

Sincerely,

Cassandre' :)

Happy Fall to you! :)

Hello and Happy Fall to all of you! We've had some mild, but very wet weather lately! I just heard some thunder a bit ago, so we may be in for some more rain. At least it hasn't turned too chilly, yet. :)

The show is going really well. I hear about my wonderful orchestra members after every show and people are enjoying the wide variety of songs that we perform. It's so much fun and so fulfilling to do. I'm very thankful for the opportunity and love getting to do my own comedy!

I have been singing at the Haygood show intermissions to promote my show, and the other day I had the pleasure of meeting Shirley Jones from the Partridge Family. She is a kind person and was fun to meet. :) I also got to meet some people from Vancouver last week at my show and people from all over the United States! It's such an honor for me to have people choose my show from so many others they could attend. Everyone has been pleasantly surprised and has really enjoyed the show. Thank you so much to all of you for being there!

I have found myself being quite excited about my free-time lately! It is such a gift to have time to just come home and spend some quiet time resting or watching a favorite show that I've recorded. Simple things, but things that really make me happy! We are so blessed to even have television when you think about it. I also just started a book that I'm looking forward to reading. It's a book my mom gave to me and it really sounds good! It's so fun to picture the story as it goes along. :)

Everything is going well and we're all doing fine here! I hope you're all well and healthy and having a great day when you read this. God bless you all and please travel safely! Thank you for visiting me!

Sincerely,

Cassandre' :)

September Days

Hello Everyone! My goodness, what beautiful weather we've been having! I hope you're all enjoying nice temperatures and good health. :) Things are going so well here.

First of all, my parents were here last week and we had such a nice time together. It's always so much fun to have them here! We got to see some shows and eat at some of our favorite places. We also celebrated my mom's birthday!!!! Woo hoo! So happy they were able to come visit. They do so much for us, too! We really appreciate them. God bless you and we love you! :)

The voice lessons are going quite well, too. I'm keeping very busy with them and seeing a lot of improvement in my students. They work hard to apply the lessons that they learn and it really does pay off for them. It makes me feel happy to see them feel good about what they're doing. :)

The show is just going so great! I feel so blessed to have the crowds that we do and the amazing musicians that we have. Everything works so well together. We're having so much fun and I have such a great time being "Erma". I'm so happy we were able to put the comedy in the show, because I enjoy doing that as well as the singing. It's all part of who I am and it's so rewarding to get to perform the things that feel so great in my voice at my show. What a beautiful opportunity. I'm truly thankful for, and energized by it all. Thank you to all of you that have been to the show to support us and what we're doing! It means so much.

I'm actually getting to have a day, today, where I am not working, and it's a bit odd. :) I keep thinking I need to do something, but I don't! It's a nice little vacation day. I'm just catching up on some golf on TV, doing laundry and having snacks! Quite lovely!

God bless you all and thanks so much for your friendship and support. Thanks for coming to visit me here and have a splendid and safe week.

Sincerely, your friend,

Cassandre' :)

Hello to you!

Hello Everyone and Happy Labor Day Weekend! :) I hope you're all happy and well. I'm doing great and having so much fun!

The show is growing and growing! We just added another musician for the orchestra two weeks ago! He is great! We now have 9 musicians on stage playing 18 instruments live for the show! It's amazing! We also just added two new songs and they sound so neat! The comedy is with Erma is going quite well. She is quite a character! :) For those of you who haven't seen Erma, you need too. :) We are just having a great time together!

The weather has been just gorgeous and my plants are doing so well! We're going to have some little peppers to eat soon, and the flowers are still blooming and looking beautiful. :) I love this time of year when it's just so nice outside!

I will update more in a bit! Just wanted to say hello! God bless you all and thanks for visiting me! Travel safe and have a great day!

Sincerely, your friend,

Cassandre' :)

Hello there! :) My goodness, I had started two other "Cassandre's Corners" and forgot to finish them and put them on here! I couldn't believe I hadn't updated you before today! :) I hope you're all having a great day and enjoying the summer weather!

I can' t believe that it's already the middle of August. Wow. This summer has flown by. I've been having so much fun and keeping very busy. I just had some 8pm shows last week, so the schedule was quite different from what I've been doing. We had great shows and some big crowds! Everyone is having a lot of fun and they're excited about the orchestra! They are very talented people and I'm very thankful to have them on stage with me. :) I really have a great time performing the comedy, as well! It's so different from everything else that I do and gives me a lot of creative freedom! :D I can't wait for all of you to see it!

I was able to attend a Springfield Cardinal's game earlier this month and had a lovely time! We got to sit in box seats and they had food available for us while we watched the game. :) It was so much fun!!!! That field is so beautiful and the games they play on the side during the game are so funny to watch! They had a milkshake drinking contest, and I was wishing I'd gotten to compete in that one! :)

Well, my plants are doing just fabulously! We've had pretty nice weather for them to flourish. My mums have SOOOOO many buds on them, too! They are going to be amazing!!!!

I sang at two weddings this month and really had a lot of fun. It's such an honor to be asked to sing at weddings and such a joy to be there!

My voice lesson students are doing really well and I'm still having a wonderful time as a Mary Kay beauty consultant. :) There are so many amazing women that have become my friends. :) What a blessing!

I hope you all have a fantastic day and thank you so much for coming to visit! God bless you all and be safe driving!

Sincerely, your friend,

Hello All! :)

Hello Everyone! :) I hope you're all well and having a great day when you read this! :)

The show is going quite well. I'm so thankful for everyone that is coming to see us. We are having so much fun! It's nice to sing songs that feel good in my voice and and that make people smile. Erma is having a great time with her new singing number! People are saying that they are really enjoying the show and that makes me so happy! I can't wait to see you all there! Thank you to all of you that have been able to be there already. It's fun to get to meet you and see you again! Just so you know, I will have three 8:00 shows on August 12, 14 and 16, so that will be interesting to see how that goes! It will be fun to have an evening time for once!

I haven't been able to play golf just lately, but I'm hoping to go out tomorrow for a bit! We'll see. :) It's relaxing to be outside and just take it easy. Hearing the birds and the breeze in the trees is lovely. So, even if I don't play like a pro, it's quite enjoyable! :)

The plants that I have are doing amazingly well! They have grown so much, and in such a little bit of time. It's so surprising! God made everything so beautiful. :) The nice, cooler weather was probably good for them! It's been a bit warmer again, but not as hot as it was before. :)

God bless you all and stay safe! Have a great weekend and week! Please feel free to e-mail me anytime! Thanks for visiting. :)

Sincerely,

Cassandre' :)

Hello Everyone! :) I hope you're all having a great day! :)

How was your Fourth of July? Mine was great! :) Tim, my parents and I went on the Showboat and were able to watch the fireworks from the top of the boat! :) Oh, it was so pretty! I loved it! There were fireworks all around us and the weather was just perfect! Our friend, Steve, got us a wonderful deal on tickets and we are so thankful for that! :) I hope you all had a great holiday celebrating our independence!

The show has been going really well! Erma has put in a new number! I won't say what, because it needs to be a surprise! :D It's very fun. Yesterday, the fog machine went a little bonkers and filled the theater with so much fog, I couldn't see the audience for a time. Someone finally had to unplug the machine and work on it so it would be alright for the second half of the show. :) We got the theater cleared of the fog during intermission and we could all see again! :) Ha! It's a completely safe sugar water that is used, so no harm done. :)

My parents helped me get some lovely little plants planted during their visit and it's so nice to have them! I love looking at them and seeing how they are growing!

My friends, Clint and Shari, just had a new little baby this morning! :) Congratulations to them! He is so cute! What a blessing. :)

Stay cool in the heat everyone and have a great day! I hope your summer is going well and you're all feeling well and happy! God bless you and travel safely!

Your friend,

Cassandre' :)
