Children's nativity program

Our Children's Nativity program this year was a success. There was a total of 18 children participating (I think) and a total attendance of 35! Our record attendance since we've been here! The children weren't too enthusiastic, but they never are really. They did sing well. They seemed to enjoy it though and hopefully it helped them to really get a glimpse of the real reason for Christmas. A teenager took these pictures and I thought she did well. Our hands were too full to take pictures. Brianna did awesome singing "Away In a Manger." She stood right up front and was louder than all of the kids.

Don't you just love the king with his nose in the air and the

shepherd asleep on the altar? !! (not really)

My little angel


Singing "C is for the Christ child"

Don't they look happy

Mittens!

Mrs. Charlotte Bell crocheted about 50 mittens for the

Little Eagle children. They were so excited!

Briannaisms

Brianna is really talking a lot and her sentences are getting longer! I asked Daniel if he wanted to go out and in the living room and play with his toys. She said, "Oh yes and I could tell him about Once upon a time there was a man that got throwed in the fire! Like the story we teached the kids yesterday!" I had to correct her of course that it was 3 men that got thrown into the fire! Then when I told her it was naptime she said ever so sweetly, "I love you mommy-I don't want to take a nap!" The best of all was after Daddy went in the bathroom and she had splashed water all over the floor for the SECOND time in one bath! She said, "Daddy, you don't have to spank me cause mommy already did!"

Brotherly-sisterly love
