I'm dreaming of a White Christmas...!

Well I have to say, I realized while walking to my apartment that cold weather really is important for me to feel in the mood for the Holidays...

Perhaps that has a lot to do with where I grew up, but it was nice to see snow on the ground- cold air, and christmas lights up.  The Caribbean was pretty amazing though... I have to say! It was nice to also feel some heat after spending two of my coldest summers in San Francisco! (I love it there, don't get me wrong, but at the same time...)

Anyway, I am on the way back to the Maritimes and I am so excited. I can't believe I am almost home. I get to see my amazing 92 year old grandmother, my two brothers, my parents, two of my three nieces and even might see some extended family! I had planned on doing a holiday concert, but ended up not having time to do it. Its a shame, but that means the next one will be THAT much better!

I am sitting with my cat at my feet, happy as a clam and wanting to wish you all a safe and happy holiday season!

Lots of Love from my family to yours,

Suzanne

Holidays in NYC

I just want to say that it is pure joy to walk around New York City around the holidays.

The smell of pine from the Christmas trees sold on the street corners, cinnamon, cider, Christmas Markets, lights on every tree and the music blasted from every store and major centers.

It may be audition time in the city, but there is always something to cheer you up in this city!

The countdown is on for my cruise! I am going to the Caribbean for a week where I will be singing up a storm and basking in the sun. I have never been on one before, so I am very excited! I am not sure about the price of wifi on the boat, so this may be my last post!

I also can now announce that I will be making my Edmonton Opera debut next season in a prominent role!!

Life is good :)

Singing and signing off,

Suzanne
