For the first time, the live nativity had a real live baby! This is little Issac, Jared's 5 week old son. Issac was a very cooperative baby and slept so peacefully!
Shayli was Mary and that is the little angel Sydni peering into the manger to look at the baby. Talmage was Joseph. A real baby meant older kids to watch over him.
A couple of kids wouldn't participate, (note Staci's absence!) but here we have (L to R) friend Ben, Tanner, Erika, friend Kylie, Shayli, Sydni, Issac, Talmage, friend Jake, AJ, and Taggart.
Then we had our show-stealers. This is little Samuel. I'm not sure if he was a sheep or an angel (the latter is fitting, though), but he was so darling as he would walk through the scene and grin at all the adults watching (wish I had a picture of the media circus recording the event!).
And this shot shows Tanner as the "class clown!" What a ham. We were singing some wonderfully appropriate song and he was being all nutty.Our Christmas Day was peaceful, with the kids waking at 7:45 (and we still had to wake Tanner at 8:15 -- he had worn himself out at the nativity!). The camera battery announced it was through at 8:20, so we missed the Santa and present shots. On the other hand, I know who more of the presents were from!
Merry Christmas, all! Aloha!

Oh, how simply wonderful to have all those parts filled in the family nativity. What a thing to have caught on camera! Grandma PenGwen
Traci, It was so wonderful getting to be part of your family celebrations. Teagan has some new admirers in my girls and I'd love to babysit the twins anytime (except that I live 2000 miles away)! I have a great video (well, great is an overestimation) a video of Teagan and his fireworks staff action. Email me with your email address and I'll send it. aleyfamily@verizon.net
