Our Nativity Play 2013

Every Christmas Eve, after dinner and before presents, Lesley and I help the kids put on a nativity play. Most of them are still too little to say lines so we usually have an adult read from Luke 2 and the kids walk out in front of the fireplace, or "stage", when their character is mentioned.
This year was a little different. Lesley and I usually make-shift costumes out of peoples scarfs and coats like we do for our silent movies, but this year my mom ordered some awesome costumes online. There is an adorable Mary and Joseph costumes, a star costume, a regal wiseman, shepherds with crooks, and the angel has a set of feather wings.
I think the real costumes got the kids more excited/ more willing to participate this year.
