...the cousins donned their costumes...
...and warmed all our hearts.
The nativity reenactment remains my favorite Christmas tradition.

We're Grateful For...
- Brent's Memorial day prayer before our BBQ at Grandpa's (too cold to swim!) pool
- Mark's immediate offer to parallel park my car at the busy cemetary on Memorial day
- Bruch with dear friends/old roommates! Thanks for tending, Royce!
- The sweet friends who checked on us when we didn't show up at church (because of colds)
- The way Wes's oversized fleece sweatshirt feels at the end of a long day
- The wonderful neighbors who picked up Lucy from school when I couldn't find my car keys!
- The feeling of spring breezing through the windows
- Christmas shopping with my big sisters!
- Lucy's daily choice of colorful, non-matching clothes
- The sound of Lucy reading Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus to Spencer
- Fixed sprinklers! Thanks Dad!!

For Families

Love it! It's one of my favorites too :)
We haven't done it for so long in my family--I definitely was missing it this year. But who can blame my parents for discontinuing it--as kids, we were not so reverent as little Lucy there. One year my sister decided to be Joseph and my brother Mary; another time my sister stuffed her dress with pillows to be appropriately great with child. And another year all the female shepherds donned marker mustaches.
can you write my posts for catch up too? I love these...
and the new look ;)
Lucy was the perfect Mary! I wish the pictures could show the way she tenderly patted the baby and looked at it with such concern and love. Oh man, she is just soooo sweet!!
Thanks for sharing the memories, what could be better than grandchildren in the nativity! And Lucy was the most tender little Mary.
I second the motion... Can't you see little Christian families across the earth acting out the Story of Stories.... Oh my, how wonderful!
Even the little funny 'slip ups' are tender and touching I think...
