For the second year in a row, the girls wanted to perform a play of the Christmas story.
Kayla wrote the script and I helped cast the characters.
The play was total mayhem, but as such, it was adorable.
The play was total mayhem, but as such, it was adorable.
It began with Kayla as the angel Gabriel, asking Mary to be the mother of Jesus.
Next Mary (Sophie) and Joseph (Kolbe) traveled to Bethlehem where they were told that there was "NO room!" at the inn by our lovely innkeeper, Ava.
Buuuuut,
they could stay in the stable.
That night Mary had her baby.
(Joseph ran for dear life. Wait a minute....)
Angels appeared to shepherds (Ava and Elise) in the fields and sang "Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to people of goodwill!"
Meanwhile, all is calm and bright in the stable.
Three wisemen (Kayla, Elise, and Ava) from the east follow a star in search of the baby King.
They kneel before him with gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
(Joseph takes baby Jesus' swaddling clothes, and Mary fights back. Wait a minute.....)
Where was I?
The wisemen worship the baby and give him precious gifts.
"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given."
-Isaiah 9:6
That same night, we all dressed in our fancy garb for the annual Christmas dance party.
I didn't really get any pictures of the dancing, but you can tell from the outfits alone that we had all kinds of fun whirling and twirling, spinning and shimmying to some Christmas tunes.
And that wraps up my posts about Christmas season 2017.
