Nativity


Last weekend, our church had a live Nativity scene in front of the church.
A few of the old ladies really get into it and they have, over the years, prepared quite an elaborate stable and manger scene as well as some very nice costumes. They asked Andy and I if we would be Mary and Joseph last Friday night.

We were quite flattered and while I had some serious reservations about standing out in the cold for two hours, I must admit that it wasn't that bad. We each wore several layers of clothes under our costumes and it was probably in the 50s. The best part is that we got 3 Nativity honks from cars passing by.
