Our Christmas Card

We were unable to send out Christmas cards this year due to lack of funds. So, instead, we decided to make our own Christmas card that we could e-mail to everyone. I'm not terribly fond of e-mailing cards, but this type of card is a little different. We decided that we would make a recording for you, which meant that it couldn't very easily be mailed (unless we burned it onto a DVD). Unfortunately, the recording proved to be too big to send through an e-mail, so we are posting it here. Hopefully you will enjoy it just the same.

The picture is just a Christmas card that my dad and his wife sent to us. We thought it appropriate for this song. The song is called "Guard Him, Joseph" and was written by Sally DeFord. I was introduced to it in our ward choir this year and fell in love. Please listen to the words. This song is not just a pretty combination of chords/notes, it also paints beautiful pictures.

Disclaimer: We have no high-tech recording equipment, so the quality is not wonderful. In fact, we just used our digital camera. So, please be forgiving. :) And have a very Merry Christmas!

Yes, it is Stewart and me singing. I think we did somewhere between 7 and 9 takes. But we don't have the right equipment, so we just decided to use what we had.
