Mother's Day Celebration in the Church

Here in the Thailand, 12th of August is celebrated as the birthday of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit. As the Queen is also regarded as mother to all Thai people, this day is also celebrated as Mother's Day.

So yesterday in the church, we celebrated the Mother's Day after the worship. We gave flowers to all the mothers and declare more blessings to them in prayers.

In connection with this celebration, we presented again the tambourine dance "Let God Arise". And since the color of the Queen is blue, we made up our minds not to wear our red dresses and wear instead costumes with something blue...we were thinkin ...for a while ... and decided to wear the blue T-shirt we bought in the side walk and paired it with white skirt ...but it seems... there's somethin lacking in it. It seems it is still informal...???? so we dag out all our costumes in the boxes hoping to find somethin we can match with our blue & white costume..well, we found the gold belt that we used in our yellow costumes and 8 green pieces of cloth that we used before as our necktie in our dance during the Christmas celebration last 2010..:) gold is too far with it... so, we go for the green coz the shirt has a shade of green, this is what we call "resourcefulness":).... so here it is..with our pearl headband bought in Bangkok for 10baht each..:)

the music this time is very much better compared last week. Thanks to ARM again for fixing the mixer..."the all around ARM" :)
here's the video of the dance again..LET GOD ARISE!

Nezzt, one of the dancers wasn't able to dance with us during that time for an important matter to attend to. So, some parts of the formation weren't emphasized well. But still, this is better performance i guess compared last week.:)

The Thai Dancers, Pluem and Wann had their dance too dedicated to all the beloved mothers in the church.

I hope to dance a Thai dance someday. The movements of their hands make me more interested on it..they're some kind complicated for me. wish the thai dancers will teach us too ..one of this days???? :)

some pix again which were taken during the celebration.

and, if the kids express their thanks to their mothers, who could stop the loving husbands in expressing their gratefulness and "kilig moments" to their wives during this special day of the mothers????..:)
