Hallelujah Chorus -Quinhagak, Alaska (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyviyF-N23A#ws)
Hallelujah Chorus -Kuinerrarmiut Elitnaurviat 5th Grade - Quinhagak, Alaska
Wow!! Thank you for all for the wonderful comments. The village of Quinhagak is glowing because of them. The amount of views is mind blowing!! Considering this video was intended for an audience of about 200. As many of you have thought, the kids worked very hard on this project. They put in 10 hours of work shooting all the scenes (on a weekend nonetheless!!) I am very proud of them!
Thank you also for pointing out the apostrophes! I now have a very teachable moment once we start school again. One they will never forget!! I'm just glad I spelled "Hallelujah" correct.
Thank you on behalf of Quinhagak, Alaska!! Merry Christmas!!

A white Christmas in Arkansas? They don't even have white teeth in Arkansas. Come to think of it, most of them don't have teeth.

Yup, he did! When Sam N Bucca were kittens, they both climbed the tree their first year. Don't forget, Bucca was a big boy, even as a youngster. I was working and when Kara and Sean came home from school, the tree was toppled over onto the bird cages, (I imagine they freaked out) as did my kids. Hence, the nail in the wall after with rope tied around the top of tree to stabilize it. When he couldn't topple it anymore, he decided to un-decorate it, which became my tradition of only putting decorations 3/4 of the way down. It looked bad, which is why I only took pictures of it from the decorations up! This is the first year I was able to decorate the whole tree! :( (I miss my Bucca, especially at Christmas, he loved the tree)! Sam could care less about the tree. Bucca was always a permanent fixture under the tree.
P.S. Bucca LOVED the red bows on the tree and did whatever it took to get at them! All the bows had teeth marks in them but I still used the same bows year after year, Bucca's signature tree.

SANTA AND THE BATS
Once upon a time, Santa and the reindeer were delivering presents in the Texas Panhandle and became lost in the middle of a big snowstorm.
A colony of Mexican free-tailed bats happened to be migrating to Mexico, and seeing Santa was lost, flew over to offer their help. When Santa saw the bats headed his way he became frightened, thinking the bats were surely after his long white hair. By the time the bats had landed on Santa's sleigh, he had frantically stuffed all of his hair under his cap. He looked so funny that the bats had to giggle before they were able to tell Santa that bats don't want to become tangled in hair – that’s just a silly rumor. The bats offered their help and Santa accepted. Guided by echolocating bats, Santa was out of the snowstorm in no time at all.
After parting ways, Santa and the reindeer flew off to finish delivering presents. As soon as the bats were out of sight, Rudolph breathed a huge sigh of relief. He thought all bats were vampires and wanted to suck his bright red nose. Poor Rudolph, he didn't realize that there are over 1000 different kinds of bats, and almost all of them eat insects and fruit. Santa decided he needed to reward bats for helping save Christmas. But because bats in the wild either hibernate or migrate during the winter, he could only reward the bats in captivity.
Santa carefully chose his treats for the different kinds of bats. He gathered mangos and figs for the fruit bats, and avocado, a favorite treat of the insect-eating bats. Santa wanted to surprise the bats on Christmas but he made a big mistake. He didn't think he needed to bother sneaking down the chimney, so he walked through the door and delivered his presents to the bats while they watched. Poor Santa, he still had a lot to learn; he thought bats were blind.
As an enlightened Santa flew off into the night sky, he could be heard proclaiming ..."Merry Christmas to All and to All a Good Night, and Please Help the Bats with All of Your Might"!
Happy Holidays, from the bats and the volunteers of Bat World Sanctuary!
