30 day song challenge: Day 11

I guess you could say that my favorite band is the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. I listen to them more than anyone else. I think that I always have.

I remember as a young child listening to records of them singing the Handel's Messiah and favorites from Broadway. I went to sleep with them almost every night. When I was a teenager, I'd turn them on while I cleaned the house or did other work. I've used them to wake me up, to perk me up and to soothe me. They're fantastic!

Here is one of my favorites that they do. It is also one of my favorite songs from a musical (one of many).

A great Halloween movie

A couple of nights ago Brian and I watched the 1944 version of The Canterville Ghost. That is probably the best spook story I've ever seen, and it's one that I'd definitely recommend. If you don't like to be scared out of your wits (like me), this is the Halloween movie for you.

Margaret O'Brian is the child actress in this charming black and white movie. She is so cute! And who can't help but love the humor in those old movies? They just don't make movies like that anymore. :(

I posted the trailer below to give you a taste of what it's like.
