one of our favorite Christmas traditions is acting out the Baby Jesus story as Grandpa (or Dad, depending on where we are) reads it aloud. this is actually a year-round game for my girls... so without further ado, the pictures:
the group shot back row: angel (clella), mary (rayna),
front row: shepherd (malachi), angel (afton), angel (geneva), wise man (maryn)
Mary riding in to Bethlehem on the donkey (dad) with Joseph (uncle daniel) to help her balance
--i should maybe point out (since it has been mentioned that that's weird) that the point of having uncle dan be joseph was so we could use baby eliza as baby jesus, but she was hungry so she declined to participate... dan was stuck in his role by then ;)
the angels visiting the shepherds (who happened to be VERY close to the stable)
i just had to include this shot of my favorite little shepherd! he was being so sweet!
and the wise men coming to bring real gold, frankinsense, and myrrh --go grandma! so prepared :)

Awww! So cute.
Fun to have enough people to act it out. We have never done that - Michael just reads and we sing lots of songs.
