The Nativity Story

We've been trying to do lots of family activities during advent; last night we acted out The Nativity Story with our fisher-price nativity set.  The boys thought is was great!  We did it 3 times, each time playing different parts.  Ed or I read the story and told the boys what to say when it was time for their line.  It was not only fun but also meaningful.  I'm sure we will be doing this a few more times before Christmas.
 When Emmeric played the Angel he flew around the whole living room before telling Mary she'd have a baby.
 They liked to bring all the animals to the stable.
Max was a wonderful Mary.  He would yell "I'm scared" when the angel came and loved to make her ride the donkey all the way to the stable.
