Two Christmas Events
Last night we went to the Live Nativity done by a local Christian school. It is so great to see the children, adults and animals do such a great job. It is always a joy to behold and I never tire of going to it, year after year.
Sometimes it is really cold because of the unpredictable nature of this season. It is outside in the evening. We sat on blanket covered bales of hay, which really makes good temporary seating for the crowds. This year it was pretty nice out, though the damp caused more of a chill as we sat still.
Afterwards we walked around inside where they had recreated a little slice of the old town of Bethlehem, with many jobs of the time being acted out with people in costume. That really gave the proper ambiance to the event.
Then a time for enjoying many varieties of baked goods, popcorn, nuts along with hot apple cider, hot cocoa or coffee.
Then tonight was the Christmas Kick-Off at the park. The pavillion was closed around and made to look like a Christmas house. We brought our little dogs in a stroller and they got pictures next to Santa and Mrs Clause with us.
Then we had cookies and cocoa and went out to enjoy the music and the Christmas lights, that were placed about in many shapes. This year snow was everywhere, so it really had the Christmasy air. Outside there were nice fires to warm by.
Soon it was time for the lighting of the Christmas tree. We had a great time and our dogs seemed to have fun as well. And they are always a hit wherever they go.
Now we are going to relax and have some hot tea and warm Gingerbread as we listen an audiobook. Since we were making Gingerbread for the church pot luck tomorrow, we made some extra. So good. What a nice way to spend an evening!
It is that time of year where days and nights are really packed with events and things to choose from. We limit ourselves or we could be going non-stop most of the days and evenings of this month.
Celebrating the birth of Jesus, the King of kings and Lord of lords is such a joy!
Stay strong! There are so many things to choose from to be a part of the Christmas celebration out in the
towns or in the quiet of your home.
