FHE: Live Nativity

Of course we had to do the live nativity! The tradition begins! This was such a sweet tender little reenactment that also made us all laugh. Rylee was Mary, Brody was Joseph, Taylee was the Angel, Britlee was the shepherd and I was a wiseman.  Rylee helped with the costumes and did such a great job!  Rylee used my flapper outfit for her dress, a sweater vest for the head dress with a headband to hold it in place.  Brody wore his indian vest he had made at preschool at thanksgiving, a shirt inside out on his head,  a stick for his staff and fire boots.  Taylee wore the yellow Princess Bell costume.  Britlee wore Santa pajamas with ruffle butts and pillowcase for her head dress complete with headband.  I draped Jon's old Star Wars sheet (from when he was a kid) around my body complimented with my brown belt and a pillowcase and headband for my head dress.  We were ready.  Joseph accompanied Mary on the brown horse head on a stick to the Inn where there was no room.  Then to the stable where she had little baby Jesus (the size of my palm) and laid him in the manger (red bean bag topped with a blanket).  The angel screamed where baby Jesus was laying in a manger.  Britlee the shepherd sat and looked at the tiny baby while the wise woman in Star Wars sheets brought gifts of "frankenstein, myrrh and gold".  We had such a great time and Jon got it all on video.
