Christmas Eve

We spent Christmas Eve with Tom's family. We had a delicious and very filling dinner followed by our second annual Nativity re-enactment. Our Joseph didn't want to participate and Sophie was quite possibly the worst "angel" ever. But at least Mary had a fun donkey ride to Bethlehem! (Special thanks to Uncle Scott, who may end up being the donkey forever because he does such a good job.) We ended the evening with lots of presents and exhausted children. Christmastime is lots of fun and I'm glad to have lots of family to spend it with!

Here are the angels proclaiming Christ's birth. Abby kept her arms up pretty much the whole time!

"Mary" had a really fun donkey ride, while "Joseph" seems to be giving a prayer of thanks that it is over.



Here is the saddest/naughtiest little angel attempting to kidnap baby Jesus to add to her baby collection.

Our cute little nativity cast.
