REASON FOR THE SEASON

If you scroll down a couple of posts, you can see the invitation we gave to some of our neighbors inviting them to family night. Well, that was last night and it turned out really well. When they got here, we explained to them that our church encourages us to do family night every week and this is why we had invited them over on Monday night. We sang a song and then started the mini pageant. The kids had fun (so did the grown-ups) and did really well much to my surprise. Then we had them all sit down and we showed them The Nativity and then had a closing song and refreshments. I sent them home with wooden mangers I had made along with a bag of straw to put in the manger when you did something nice. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and said we should make this a yearly tradition!!!

You're Invited

This year we decided to do something a little different for a party for our neighbors. In the past we've had them over to dip homemade chocolates, help us tie fattigmans or just come for games. This year we have invited our neighbors over for a nativity play. All of the kids will take part in acting out Luke II. Should be interesting. I was really nervous about giving out invitations, because I wasn't sure what the response would be. I was surprised when everyone we invited said they would like to come!!!!

If any of you are in town you can come too! :)
