The Nativity Play at Church

This past weekend was our Christmas celebration at church!  A lot of people flee for the holidays at the end of his week and won't be in church, so our Christmas service took place a bit early.  The kids have been working for weeks on The Nativity Play and they did a great job! Kylie was Mary, Jack was the Innkeeper and Megan was an eyewitness news reporter (because they had them there in Bethlehem, you know)!  They did a WONDERFUL job and it was fun to see it all come together!  I've had the priviledge of helping them out a bit and hosting a play practice at our house, too :)  And I got to sew Kylie's belly :)

 And finally spoke with the Innkeeper who had already given up his own bed, but could put them up in the Stable!
