The Nativity
We started Christmas Eve off with the Nativity story. Since there weren't enough kids, and one that didn't want to participate, the adults had to chip in and help. It was fun getting dressed up!
Our lovely narrator was Jon's sister, Gretchen.
I was the angel; Madalyn was Mary but didn't want to get caught on camera (teenagers!!) so she hid in her costume the whole time. :) Andrew was Joseph; McKay & Jon were shepherds.
The Wise Men were Maryn, Erik, and Joshua.
Christmas Morning
Christmas morning came quickly and boy were we spoiled!
I had this box built by a cabinet maker friend of ours, Paul Tate, for my wonderful Jonathan. I think Jon loved it, he sat and stared at it for several minutes. :)
I made this rag quilt for my sweet mom. She loves it, but she's gonna need to wash it a few times...the lint drives her crazy!
I forgot to get a picture of me...since I'm always the one with the camera in my hands! I was given lots of fun things! Jon got me a computer, new pots and pans, other kitchen stuff, my mom got me a couple cute scarfs (I love scarfs!).
Above and beyond all this stuff! We recognize that Jesus Christ is our greatest gift of all!! We are so blessed to have him!
