Live Nativity

Last weekend our church put on a Live Nativity for the Capitol Hill community. It was a great way to keep focused on the reason we celebrate Christmas- not for santa and presents...Jon volunteered to be a wise man with camel (llama), and so we went down and hung out there for awhile. Caed took a late nap, and so he woke up late and this was a great way to burn off some energy. He loved seeing dad all dressed up, and some of our other friends as well. He even warmed up to the animals and pet them himself. He was a little too comfortable! It was also a good reinforcement of learning animals and their sounds.


Caed and sheep: Baaa!





Donkey- He was only a little scared after the baby donkey backed up into him!






Here's the baby:







Caed looking very enthusiastic to be sitting with Joseph, Mary and baby Jesus (real baby!):





Isn't dad looking handsome? I think he should try this look more often!:


Dad's "camel":


Friends, Mom, Grace, daughter, Violet:
