Christmas Nativity Spectacular

A stake down here puts on this great activity for families and friends. They decorate the church REALLY nicely and put hundreds of nativities in it. There are refreshments, an art project for kids, people and groups come and sing, a group nativity picture, the church's nativity video, and a story time for the kids(about the nativity). It is just great! But these first pictures are not about that. Don really wanted me to take this picture. I was kind of not wanting too. I remember having a picture that my family made fun of me for and this is a good one for Hyrum. I ended up ripping it and throwing it a way with nobody to stop me. Now I wish I had it! ;) I just can't help but laugh at it.
These are my favorite things right now about our new house.

Here are the pictures from the nativity event. Firstly, we got there way too early so we wasted time by going out to eat. The food was great and the company was better.
The kids just had to have a potty break after eating. So instead of enjoying the event they went to the bathroom first.
Here we are listening to someone play Christmas music and Adelyn finds a friend. Jaxon is dancing to the music and Hyrum, well I don't know exactly want he did. He just seemed to bob around and try everything. Play with Adelyn and her friend then go dance with Jaxon and then whine to me.
The art project was coloring a sticker nativity scene.
I put the sticker on Hyrum's nose and he did not take it off. I think he liked it there.
Jaxon decided that it was a cool fashion statement and followed suit.
Adeyln really wanted to be Mary in the picture. We had just watched the video and she was overjoyed to be Mary. Of course she thought it was to put on a show and not just a picture. We will have to put on the show as a family on Christmas eve.
The process to get them all ready was not so much fun. Hyrum wanted the angel clothes and the big shepherds cane.
Here is the end result and the last picture for today. I thought that would be fitting. I hope you all have a GREAT HOLIDAY SEASON!

Aww, the picture turned out really cute.

I love your fireplace and your backsplash, wow. They're both really, really fancy looking.

I'm glad you guys had a good time. I like the picture of Addy holding that little girl's hand.

Wow! That looks so fun! I'll have to remember that next year.
The kids look so cute!

I LOVE the pictures of your house!!! What beautiful details. Saturday we went to look at a neighborhood and we got to walk through the Austin model. Oh so tempting! What a gorgeous house!
