Old Town Bethlehem



Some of you may remember that this time last year we had a very important person in our house -- baby Jesus! For one weekend in December our church is transformed into Old Town Bethlehem and last year we were asked to be the holy family (check out the posts from December 08 to refresh your memory and have a good laugh!).

Because we were confined to the manger last year we decided to go back this year and check out the rest of town. There were all kinds of things to look at and Will had a blast running through "town." I thought all the costumes and dim lights would intimidate him, but I was definitely wrong! He was hard to keep up with -- running up to people to show them his shoes, sampling the pomegranate, petting the animals, he was everywhere!

Collecting some shillings on the way in...



Will and Elyse loved the animals! They should be fun to take to the rodeo this year!



We may have to work on the taking food from strangers thing...not so shy right now!



Next stop ... visit with Santa! Gotta make the rounds...:)
