I was checking my email yesterday when I noticed an invitation to attend the rehearsal of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's concert tour that night. I was so excited thinking that this was a great opportunity to see them perform all the songs they were doing on their tour back East. And better yet----it was FREE!!!! I have truly grown to love the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and it is mostly because of a wonderful choir director we had in Alabama. Her name is Sarah Draughon and she was an amazing choir director. She helped me to gain a greater appreciation of this wonderful choir. I love watching and listening to MoTab---they are just so talented and they blend so well together.
I knew that Michael had much to do last night in preparation to go to Zion's Camp with James. I called him up and told him about the concert. He knew that it was something that I really wanted to do and plus--he knew that I had missed out on both of their Concerts last year. So, my wonderful husband cancelled everything just so that he could drive back to downtown Salt Lake and watch the Mormon Tabernacle Choir perform--just because he loves me!!! I can not even say in words my thoughts and feelings of the concert----it was just amazing!!! I cried through so many of their songs. They sang so many of my favorites---I think it was mostly the Lord's Tender Mercies for me: Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing, Homeward Bound, Climb Every Mountain and so on. They are an amazing choir and the spirit was so strong and I was just so thankful that I could be a part of it. Thanks Michael for making those sacrifices for me----I love you!!!
