Live Nativity

Sunday night we were invited to a Live Nativity at my in-laws neighbors house (the same neighbors that invited us to the Polar Express party). It was so much fun and so nice to see a live re-enactment of the birth of the Savior right before Christmas. Before the program the kids loved checking out the stable...with "Live Chickens" and they even got to feed Mary's donkey...they loved that!

Nate wanted to see the animals from a distance (the chickens freaked him out) but he did want to see all the goodies up close...so we went to check those out :)

Sammy and Ben were invited to participate as Shepherds in the play...they were so excited and took their part very seriously!

After the production we decided to get a picture of our family in the stable...what a fun night and a great way to remind the kids of the real meaning of Christmas!
