Christmas Eve

Since we had already celebrated with the Hayes on Saturday, we had the traditional Chinese food supper on Christmas Eve (which we usually have on the 23rd).
We re-re-enacted the Christmas story (well, some of us did it for the first time). I don't think we can do it too many times anyway, it is, after all, the whole point of the season.

Uncle James was Joseph again.




But this time his wife was his daughter. She apparently had a fairly easy delivery.




It looks like it is the donkey who was tired...




The shepherd was doing very well...



...until the angel came...



...and scared her...




Despite a longer trip, the camel didn't seem tired at all.






 I think we all had fun.




We did so good acting that we thought we could try playing the bells. We need a little bit more practice for that I think, but they still did pretty well. You will recognize the First Noël (twice) and Silent Night.




I think Grandpa Bruce loved it !
