Road to Bethlhem














Last night I took Nacole to a local church that was putting on "Road to Bethlehem". You started with walking past the angel telling Mary she was going to have a baby, then past the angels and shepherds, and then into the city of Bethlehem. Here are some pics of Nacole walking through Bethlehem learning about what might have been going on there. She got feel clay from a lady making a pot, smell herbs, see muscles (she was not impressed), and watch the wood carving people. She loved watching the dancers (when she was not playing with straw on the floor!). At the end she saw Baby Jesus. There was a "wedding" earlier where the flower girl dropped flowers (this was neat for her to see to since she is going to be a flower girl in June!). She ran back over to where we watched that, grabbed a flower and went and laid it by Baby Jesus. She was very mesmerized most of the night.




This past Saturday we attended the Christmas Parade downtown. Nacole brought along a friend, and they had a blast! They loved getting candy and treats. They were very excited when Santa came by on a Fire Truck! They both left with tons of candy.
