Journey to Bethlehem and Live Nativity

The church that is part of Ian's school had a Live Nativity last weekend. It started inside the fellowship hall with a marketplace in Bethlehem.



They tasted some flat bread and wine (grape juice). They got to mill some grain, pet a fuzzy chicken, help make and keep a dreidel, watch someone make pottery and weave baskets. It was pretty informative and kinda fun, despite the crowded room.

Then outside we went to six different stations that had a little drama that told the story of Mary and Joseph's journey and of Jesus's birth.


The kids ate it up. But I think for Scott and I, we went to see the camels....


I don't know how to rent a camel or how much it is, but I want one for my next birthday :) They're cool.
