It's Christmastime Again

Well, almost!  At least it sounds like Christmastime in our warm home.  We girls are practicing in all our free moments, whether it's after the dishes are finished or while the dishes are being washed.  

And then we do it all over again, especially when Emma is home from college... 

I wonder why?

Well, it is no secret--we have a Christmas show on
November 29.  It's true!  

(see the left-hand side bar for more details)

Come join us for timeless caroling and heart-sharing as we celebrate the magic and joy of Christmas!

Love, 

The Ramsey Sisters

and Introducing...

...at a summer show we're very excited about. :)

See you there!

Wintering in Winnsboro

...Saturday night!  It's true!  We'll be all bundled up and headed to Art and Espresso
while, baby, it's so cold outside!

We've been caroling in Tyler's Dillards... in Gilmer... and now we're coming to Winnsboro.

Stop in for coffee and carols from 7:00-9:00 p.m. this Saturday!

p.s.  We'll be singing our own a cappella rendition of the Andrew Sister's Jingle Bells!!  

That's all I'll say. ;-)

Apple Blossom Time... in Winter?

No... it is most assuredly not apple blossom time yet. But we are indeed in the spirit of the 40's and the Andrew Sisters as we sing Apple Blossom Time and many other numbers each day, while making a To-Do List to iron and press our teal dresses, and find our matching bows for the upcoming show in Quitman!

You might ask... what is this show?

Well... it is a show of the best kind. A dinner theater. Which means you watch the show while enjoying an elegant meal! A production blending the greatest 40's-50's hits, sung by some of the most talented singers in East Texas. It's been such a delight to work with the Quitman theater! Rehearsals are several times each week and our anticipation grows as we sing a new song each night.

Quitman's Dinner Theater this year, titled, A Sentimental Journey, will indeed by a night to remember. And, might I say, an evening to sing, laugh, and step back in time to World War II!

We'd love to see you there if your calendar and your purse allows! (details below)

..."and Caroling Out in the Snow"

There'll be parties for hosting, marshmallows for toasting, and caroling out in the snow....

Friday evening, just as the sun is setting and the chilly wind starts to turn to biting cold, we'll be pulling out our warmest coats, our best gloves and hats, sturdy shoes, and of course, our Christmas caroling books... and off we go to downtown Winnsboro to go "caroling out in the snow"!!

... except, without the snow part. :)

So, if you happen to be in Winnsboro on Friday evening, between 5:00-7:00, you will hear our faint voices down the street, at Gina's Creative Cake shop, singing our Christmas favorites! Do stop in for a warm, holiday treat as you pass by!

Christmastime is Here

... and we are singing in the Christmas cheer with True Blue and Friends!

We will be singing jazzy Christmas favorites with Shannon and her friends to celebrate this Christmas with the charm and joy of the season!

We are looking forward to a special appearance, Dad singing Count Your Blessings and Sarah Anne and Matthew performing a charming Christmas Eve skit. An evening not to be missed!

On the Stage Again

The day began with sponge curlers tied up in a pink scarf...

... coffee on the porch

Sharing the Bible with Dad

...and sponge rollers under a yellow dryer

Deanna's black and white photos to inspire us...

Mother's hands pulling out soft curls

... and more sitting under the yellow dryer! (with a book)

The day ended with white cotton dresses...

and ever so many happy smiles!!!

Thank you to the Tyler Senior Citizens for having us and to Micah Graham for being our lovely narrator!

We hope to be putting our teal and white dresses on again soon!! Please leave us a comment or send an email if you have any questions, or if you are simply interested in us. We'd love to hear from you!

For Your Information

The Ramsey Sisters are officially in business!

We are currently seeking shows in our surrounding area.  We find our music most appreciated by the older generation and are pursuing shows at churches and Senior Citizen's events.  We are also available for weddings and private events.

We have an extensive collection of songs to offer.
Check out the list on the left side-bar.  

Email us at cbramsey@peoplescom.net for booking information.

The Coming of Christmas

Christmas comes but once a year....

Tradition... memories.... they all come with it.

Learning to count your blessings, no matter the course of events,

is a harder lesson to learn than one would have thought.

Here's wishing you the merriest Christmas you've ever had,

not only a blessed Christmas, but a grateful one.

---The Ramsey Sisters

Friday morning... the Ramseys in curlers...

Transformed....

Until next time!

A Sudden Whirlwhind

Our performance on Friday took us farther than we would ever have dreamed.  With the invitation to follow Sheriff Mack to Fredericksburg, TX, and sing there, our lives were suddenly whirled into unexpected adventure.  We went.  We performed.  We were blessed beyond measure.

And... there is a possible performance in April.  Very possible, I may say.  When I have confirmation on that I will post the date and location here.

On a side note, for those of you who heard us in Fredericksburg, and requested a CD, I must sadly inform you that we have none.  As of Friday, we had never done this kind of performance before, and are thrilled that so many people enjoyed the result of all our labors. 

We have been on stage before, but it was with our family's music group, "The Great Interference".  We write and perform original songs with a feel of acoustic, folksy, rock.  For more information, click here.  We do have an album for The Great Interference.  You can hear some of the songs, and buy the CD, if you would like, at The Great Interference blog.

So, for now, while we have no hard copy of the music of  The Ramsey Sisters to offer you, buy yourself an original Andrews Sisters album, and listen to your heart's content.

May you all be ever so blessed,

Emma

Coming Soon....

The day of our performance is growing closer.  We would love to see you there!

An Introduction

The Ramsey Sisters have loved old fashioned music since a young age, the jazzy tunes of the 1930's and 1940's, the artistic quality of the vocal tones, all the wonderful harmonies that make each song so special...  The Ramsey Sisters have been singing these songs together as long as they can remember.  Studying the intricate harmonies and blending their voices in that wonderful old fashioned way has become their focus in re-creating the jazz-age music.  

Come and hear them!...

March the 13, 2008
