ringing in Christmas at Grace Cathedral...!

This past weekend a few lovelies and myself bundled up and headed over to the amazing Grace Cathedral in San Francisco's Nob Hill to see the Grace Cathedral Choir of Men and Boys perform seasonal Christmas classics.  Accompanied by a full band, this was such a treat to hear and to experience. 

The church itself is a masterpiece with it's soaring ceilings, mix of materials and one view leading to another even more gorgeous view....hidden nooks and rooms, labyrinths and glittering stained glass windows......truly spectacular and a must see.   You don't need to be a religious individual to appreciate the craftsmanship, community and belief that went into this church and continues to do so.

I captured a few photos for you all to enjoy....and mark your calendars for next year.  I promise, you will love it.
