On Wednesday we went to the annual live Nativity at our church. Kaylee looks forward to this each year. Campbell of course had no memory of this since she was only one last year but she was very excited about animals being at church. The first picture is of an Angel, Joseph, Mary, and baby Jesus. There were more people in the Nativity but some were tending to the sheep and goats. 
Much to our surprise Campbell was the brave one feeding all the animals whether they were hungry or not and Kaylee was just happy to stand back and observe for a little while. Eventually Kaylee got in on the action too and even rode the donkey. Campbell wanted nothing to do with the donkey but was happy to pat baby Jesus. 
After all the animal fun we headed inside to watch a puppet show they put on for the children about the birth of Jesus. There were also refreshments. Kaylee enjoyed the hot chocolate and Campbell ate her weight in pigs in a blanket. All in all I would call the night a success. The girls talked about all the activities and the story of Jesus the whole way home. It is so nice to see them so excited about Jesus.
