Christmas Programs

'Tis the season for Christmas programs!  Between church, Bella's school, and Graydon's school, we were really ushered into the Christmas spirit.

Here's some photos from our church program.










Bella was Mary this year!


Graydon was a king.








Curtis was a lamb.


That following Wednesday was the program at Bella's school:  'Our House is a Holiday House'.


And then Graydon's preschool program was on Friday. 

We were all responsible for our kids' costumes.  I intended to borrow a shepherd costume from our church - but they were all just too big.  I didn't realize that until the night before the program.  After a quick Google search, I was able to find materials from my house (a pillowcase and a large piece of fabric) and put his Shepherd costume together in about 20 minutes.  And it didn't cost anything!






The shepherds said, "I wish I were a shepherd, so I could go and see the baby born in Bethlehem, asleep on Mary's knee." 


Here are some of the video highlights from the three programs.  A little disclaimer on Graydon's program - I didn't have our video camera with me (forgot to charge the battery) and ended up using my cell phone.  I couldn't zoom with it and the footage was tiny - so I only included video from the end of the program when he was walking offstage.
