We couldn't really leave our house to go very far for 2 wks (except, I some how managed to make it to Target and Costco). So I couldn't believe the amount of snow that had fallen. And the roads were not plowed because they've never needed them here.
The Birds house is the one on the left, we tried 4-5 times to make it up their drive-way but we ended up parking by the mailbox.
We had a great time doing the Nativity we had plenty of people to play the different characters.The Angels
Joseph and Mary on a Donkey
The very scared shepherds
The very wise narrator
The extremely wise wisewomen
While we were there the Bird-Vontrap family played a bell concert for us.

Christmas morning.
It's not very Oregonian to have a fake tree but for some reason Christmas snuck up on us.

Ben had ordered this Santa bread. It was really yummy but not so sweet looking.
Christmas was really a great memory for the family.

What a great Christmas. It has also always been my dream to wake up on Christmas and have snow. It must have been like out of a dream. Looks like a lot of fun!!!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE those pictures. Sounds like a storybook Christmas. I have a few questions and a comment or two. Ben's beard--it is very shepherdy. Is it a permanent fixture? You as a wisewoman and Zach as an angel---perfect casting.
Hannah looked so Mary-like astride that donkey. Where is your stocking Miss Mindy? Are you doing the Mom thing by being too busy to worry about your own stocking? --Thanks for sharing those great pictures.
One more thing. How great for the Birds to share their expertise on the bells with you. Now it's your turn to show them how talented you Williamsons are by playing your pipe chimes for them.
Looks like you guys had a lot of fun. I really miss having snow on Christmas, there is nothing like it. I love the whole reenacting, one of these days I am going to do it with my clan.
I love to see the pictures of your nativity play. Don't you love those costumes? Ours sure get a lot of wear. What a great cast! Great cast, great costumes, and of course, the best script ever written - how can you go wrong with such a production?
