Nativity

After Christmas Eve dinner, we decided to act out the Nativity this year. It was so fun! I have such fond memories of doing this as a child. It was a great way for the kids to bring in the Spirit of Christmas. I hope they felt it and that is a fond memory for them to look back on!

Dad read the story. Luke of course was baby Jesus. Addy was Mary and Dawson was Joseph.....
"And she brought forth her firstborn son,and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger;" Luke 2:7

Ellie, Ky and Derek were shepards.....
"And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night." Luke 2:8

Julsey was the angel......
"And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them," Luke 2:9
Bry, Rich and Tay were the wise men......
"Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the King, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem." Matthew 2:1
