Last night we were asked to play the role of the holy family at KUMC (I go to MOPS there and know lots of the members there even though we attend a different church) for their Night at Bethlehem. This event is for the kids to experience what it might have been like - they met the wise men, shepherds, and Jesus. They also visited "shops" where they "bought" local food (plus hot dogs) and made fun crafts. It was such an awesome event for kids and we will definitely be back next year!
We felt like such celebrities as all the kiddos wanted to meet baby Jesus and wish "him" a happy birthday! We were in soooo many pictures. And I got to talk to so many of them about the role "we" played in the Bible. Really fun!!
It was pretty late for our sweet baby girl (6:30-8:30) so we had to bail around 8 thanks to some serious fussing, but I think everyone understood that even Jesus had to get some sleep :)
