This is my
very favorite part of Christmas: The Christmas Eve Program! It was so special to have all my
family (except my older brother and his family) together on Christmas
Eve to celebrate the birth of Jesus. I love the tradition of dressing up
like Joseph and Mary, singing the special . It was extra special this year having a baby
Jesus (Carder)!! I put together an awesome video that went along with the program:
We talked about what Christmas is, what it means to everyone. We all felt such a happy feeling. Although we all had a different answer to what Christmas meant to us we all knew the true meaning of Christmas was the birth of our Savior.
We then took turns reading the Christmas story from Luke 2 and we had the kids act out the program. Mara was Mary, Caleb was Joseph, Ty was a shepherd, Nate was the donkey, Carder was baby Jesus, and Brooklyn was the angel! They were all so darling! Ty did a great job making the scenery for the production!!
Joseph leading his donkey to Bethlehem with Mary on it's back!
The shepherd came to see the baby Jesus!
The angel visiting the little family!
Brooky is such a sweet angel!
I love these boys!! Baby Carder was a trooper! He did such a great job as Baby Jesus!
What a special Christmas celebration! We ended the night singing Happy Birthday to Baby Jesus and had yummy cakes and cobblers for dessert! Truly we felt the Christmas spirit that night!

This program was my favorite part of Christmas. You did a super job of putting it together and giving everyone a part. It was nice to have all the pianist play one hymn. This included TY. I hope he stays with the piano
We enjoyed the video and all the comments that were made about Christmas. We were all blessed to feel the"Spirit" and know that because Christ was born we all can celebrate and be grateful.
I too missed Jason's family.
It was a wonderful celebration.
Love, M
