And Nathan had a boy cousin to join him at the little table.
Holly and Emily got to sit at the table with the adults.
After dinner and visiting we all changed into costumes to act out the nativity story. My parents usually join us on Christmas Eve for this tradition but since we had the Walkers over this year they made other plans. Luckily they dropped off a box of handmade nativity costumes for us to wear, a gift I have been asking my mom to make for years. Thanks so much mom!The angels and shepherds
Shepherds visit the baby Jesus
Wisemen en route to Bethlehem, Narrator Scott behind

A picture of the whole gang. Nathan wanted to be a tiger and when we told him there were no tigers he refused to participate. Silly boy!
Today I am thankful for:

Man, you had much better costumes! It looks like you've had a great Christmas with family too. Happy New Year!
Looks like you DID have a special Christmas Eve. Trust Barbara for helping out. Thanks for sharing often and with lots of pictures.
I love the nativity costumes! What a great idea. We usually do the nativity with our neighbors every Christmas Eve, but this year we were in California. It is hard to motivate a bunch of adults to participate without the joint peer pressure and the Urry costume cupboard. This year we failed, but there's always next year. It looks like you had a great production and so many awesome actors and actresses!
What a fun evening! Everyone looks so happy to be together!
