This is one of my favorite traditions. At the Farmer home on Christmas Eve, the kids act out the nativity while Dad reads out of Luke. This year Dallin was an Army shepherd (read Ammon). Amy was a black sheep.
2 of the three wise women with a coon hat sheep.
Of course Melissa the angel.
This was a very funny story to me at least. Beth started this years nativity as Mary, Lincoln was asleep in his trailer unavailable to participate. Julie was upstairs working with Preston on bed time.
Then Lincoln decided he also did not want to be alone anymore so he made a ruckus over the monitor until Beth went upstairs to be with him. So I filled in much to moms chagrin.
That did not last long though and I was ousted by Natalie, who did a great job.
Well, that is until Julie showed up and took her place as Mary. So if you are counting, we went through four different Marys this Christmas Eve.
To make things even better Preston's agent worked out a last minute deal and he played baby Jesus. He was a sturdy baby Jesus.
The happy cast minus Mary 1 (Beth).
I have to designate you two among the world's worst bloggers. Then again, maybe you're just trying to keep the spirit of Christmas going year-round. :)
