Here's a photo run-down of the Christmas Eve festivities:
Eating dinner with cousins - Mariah, Orva, and Elaine
Ford and Sally
Reading Christmas books from Grandpa Paul and Grandma Orva
Acting out the nativity scene - Orva and Elaine both wanted to be Mary (although Orva sort of wanted to be an angel, too - hence the tinsel on her head in place of a scarf)
The cutest little shepherd boy you ever saw - Wayne
The Holy Family - Joseph wasn't interested in his costume at this point (and no, that isn't a two-headed baby Jesus - each Mary just needed her own baby)
Sally - the fancy little angel (and she knew it!)
The final scene - somewhat chaotic, but very fun
Christmas Eve jammies (it's kind of fun to have my two little boys match)
And that's it! Altogether a very fun night!

How fun! It makes me wish we had been there again, although that would have added lots of wildness to the nativity scene. I love the two Marys, and how Orva was an angelic Mary. She is looking sooo grown-up and different - I don't know if I would have recognized her. Also, I love the Christmas jammies picture with your boys in matching - I seriously almost thought Housley was a little doll that Orva was holding! All three look so sweet together. I can't believe you have 3 now.
i love that last picture of the 3 kids together. orva looks like she's concentrating so hard on holding housley. i love that there had to be two mary's. very pretty, both of them. and that little sally in her finery - too cute. i also love the picture of all of them together - that's a lot of small children in a nativity scene!
