Happy Easter!

Hello everyone! Happy Easter to you. I've been reading about the Easter Lily. They symbolize new life and hope. The bulb buried in the ground represents the tomb of Jesus, and the glorious white trumpet-like fragrant flowers which grow from the bulbs, symbolize His life after death. I think that's really neat. :) They were brought to the United States in 1875 from Japan by an American tourist. Who knew?? :)

I hope you're all enjoying this beautiful Easter weekend. We are getting a lot of rain, but doing fine. :) Thank goodness the people in and around St. Louis are alright after their storms. Stay safe and weather-wise during this season. :)

This is a wonderful time to reflect on the beauty of every day things, like trees, flowers, birds, and nature and see just how amazing God is. It truly is astounding when you really take it in and appreciate all the neat things around you. :)

We are getting amazing compliments on the show every one!! It is people's favorite of ours for sure! We are so glad and thankful for this response. Thank you to all of you for your support of us. :)

Looking forward to seeing you all at the show!! You will love Aunt Erma!! :) God bless you and thanks for visiting. :)

Sincerely,

Great shows!

Hello all! I hope your week is going well. We are having such fun at the theater. Aunt Erma is making so many friends. :) She just can't help it!

We have a show every Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon at 2 pm. We are at the New Americana Theatre. Everyone likes the show even more than last year. It's going so great.

We have been having nicer weather lately, but had some interesting storms before. The picture is of ice from a hail storm just at the beginning of this week. That's Spring for you! :) I hope you've all been alright with your weather and keeping safe.

Easter is just around the corner. I can't believe it's almost here. I've always really enjoyed Easter. It's such a neat time of year. All the trees and flowers are so beautiful and fresh.

God bless you all and thank you for visiting! Safe travels to you, happy days and peaceful evenings. :)

Sincerely,

Ready for another week. :)


Hello everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. It's Sunday night and I'm getting ready to turn in, but wanted to say a quick hello. :) By the way, this is me pondering art. Hmmmm. :) Does anyone know what this painting is about?

The shows are going very well and we are getting a tremendous positive response! Everyone has said this is definitely their favorite show so far. We're so glad and having such a nice time. The band is SO great! I hear about them all the time. If you haven't been to see us, or know someone that hasn't, come on over! You will be so glad you did. :)

For those of you that don't know her, Aunt Erma is so excited to meet you. She is pretty shy, ;) but she's warms up to people fast. Ha! She's pretty outrageous, but a sweet lady none the less. You'll love her singing style and her eye for fashion, as well. (Just wait and see!)

I took some time today to rest and am so glad I had the opportunity to do so. :) What a blessing it can be to truly relax. We had a very nice time at church today, a great breakfast put on by the boy scouts right after church, (they did a very nice job), and then it was down-time for me. Such a nice day. :)

I truly thank you all for your support and for telling people about the show! It helps us more than you know! Thank you! God bless you all and have a great week.

Sincerely,
Cassandre' :)

Good times!

Hello all! I hope your weekend was wonderful. :) The shows are so much fun!! Getting ready for another great week. :)

I'm posting from my phone right now to see how it goes! :)

These pictures were colored for me by some dear friends! ;) Thank you girls!

We would love to see you all at the show! Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 2pm. The New Americana Theatre! God bless you all. Be safe and thanks for visiting!

Sincerely,

Great new show!!!


Hello Everyone!! The new show is going really well. Everybody is having a great time!! We have heard such comments as, "We didn't know it could get even better, but it has!" What a nice thing to hear. Erma has a great new number in the show and people are really liking that, as well. I know I love it!! :) Ha!

I've been keeping very busy promoting the show, doing the shows, giving voice lessons, singing at church, and taking care of everyday things, too. Laundry, dishes, bills, errands. . . . they don't ever stop, but I kind of like doing those things, too! It's a nice sense of accomplishment.

We are finally experiencing more "Spring-like" weather. I'm so glad. It was quite cool most days last week, and was a bit like that today, too, but it's getting warmer. All of the buds have bloomed into beautiful flowers on our trees. So pretty. I just love this time of year. I know it affects a lot of people and their allergies, but it's still beautiful! :)

I can't wait for you all to see the new show! Thanks to all my friends that have come to see it so far! It's so great to see you all. I really appreciate it. The most special guest was my mom! :) She came for the opening of my show and we had a great time together. We had fun shopping, going to shows and having some nice dinners together. The time always goes way too fast, but that's because we're having fun!

Have a beautiful Spring day wherever you are and whatever you choose to do. Remember to take time to enjoy all the little things and the present time. :) Don't forget to live in the now while planning for your future. ;) Our thoughts and prayers go out to those in Japan. God bless you all. Thanks so much for visiting! Be safe out there.


Sincerely,

Cassandre' :)

Opening show...quickly approacing! :)



OPENING SHOW on Monday, March 14th!!! 2 pm. :) The New Americana Theatre!!


Hello Everyone! :) We are nearing show opening!! :) I'm really looking forward to it. We've been having great rehearsals. The band is even better than before, and the songs are really great!

We ran through the new show today and were very pleased with how well it went. The band sounds SO good! Erma has a new number in the show this year, as well. We couldn't leave her out! :) I won't tell you which one it is, but you'll like it! So much fun.


My voice students are doing so great. I'm really happy for them. They learn very quickly and it's a lot of fun to help them achieve wonderful music. It's enjoyable for me, too! :)


Wow. What a beautiful day we had today and yesterday. Sunshine, sunshine, sunshine! I just love it. Spring is great! Don't forget to set your clocks ahead tomorrow, (Saturday March 12). :) Yes, we lose an hour of sleep, but we'll have sunshine for an hour longer! Woo!


God bless you all! I'll keep you posted on things! Our schedule is Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 2!! :) Thanks for checking in with us.


Sincerely,
Cassandre' :)

Show preparations!

Well, hello everyone! We are busy working on this year's show. It's going to be even better than before. I'm really looking forward to a new year and getting to see you all again. :)




March 14, at 2:00 p.m. is our opening show this year! We are at the New Americana Theatre on the 76 strip. So, two Mondays from now we will be open!!! Our schedule in on the website. To start with, we are every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 2:00.

I just ordered my dresses last week and the week before, so I'm excited to see those. It's always fun to add new costumes to the show. Picking them out of everything you have to choose from is not easy. I wish I could change dresses every week! That would probably be a bit excessive, however. :)

The new songs are so enjoyable. It will be nice for everybody to hear some new things again this year! It's always difficult to know what to pull from the show to make room for the new things. I really liked all of last year's show, and now I like this one even more. :)

I hope you all have had a safe and happy winter. Spring is coming just around the corner! It was so warm here yesterday. In the 70s! Then, today, it was in the upper 30s. Hmmmm. Well, that's February I guess. :)

I had a wonderful time this off-season. I went to a convention in Pennsylvania, went on an amazing cruise with my mom, went to visit my family, went to Hawaii with Timothy, went to visit my family again, and then came home to Branson! It was so much fun! I'm so thankful to my mom for going with me on the cruise. It was extremely relaxing and so much fun. We saw all kinds of shows and got to be out on the ocean for 7 nights. It was beautiful. The first picture up top is at the great Italian restaurant aboard the ship. Soooo delicious! I would like to go there for dinner. :) We even got to see two different Mayan ruins. It was fascinating. I posted a picture from one of the ruins up top, as well! So neat!

I will post again in a bit! Thank you for visiting and for your support. God bless you all and have a wonderful week!

Sincerely,
Cassandre' :)
