Our Expected Christmas Eve Guests

On Christmas Eve we have people over, usually family of Rob's, and do a potato bar and put on a nativity play. We draw parts (this year we did do a little casting of particular parts, Luke really wanted to be a wiseman! And we had the perfect Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus.) This year I was the camera person and Carol was the narrator.

Hannah, Stina, and Luke (what a surprise) were our wise people! And I must say we have not had such pretty wise ones before!

Sam was our angel and did a magnificent job of it even tho his halo was a little eschew!

Jeff and David were our shepherds (obviously from the blue clan of shepherds) and Mom was our sheep!

Rob was the innkeeper who looked a little native american and Isaac was our donkey when on all fours.

Shelia was Mary and Owen was Joseph.

And little Oliver made his debut in our production as the baby Jesus. He is so cute and laid in the little manager so well until he hit himself in the head with one of his gifts! We love watching the video after and tend to rewind back to previous years and remember those who were with us before and see who has changed the most and grown. It is really quite fun. I look forward to seeing who will be with us next year! Millie
