The Christmas Story...

After playing outside, we all headed into the house to hear the Christmas story.

We started with an empty table with just a white cloth on it. As Dad read the Nativity story, the table started to fill up. First was the stable followed by the animals. After that, Mary and Joseph came to the table followed by the shepherds and angels, and finally the kings made their journey to see the baby Jesus.

Different family members carried up a part of the Nativity scene to make it complete.(All the grandkids had an animal to carry up.) After each character was brought forward, we sang songs. Connor and Emma played the music as we sang. This was the first time they played their Christmas songs and had a whole group of people sing along with them. They did a great job!
