We had our Christmas Eve nativity play at my parent's where Megan played Mary and Jordan, the angel. Of course, Megan wanted to play the part of Mary because that meant she could take care of "baby Jesus" and so the whole day she practiced her part, with a towel over her head while she rocked her baby. She even made sure to put her baby down for a nap so it would be well-rested for the play. As soon as I put the costume on, she acted the part with a very serious, yet sweet expression on her face. She rocked and kissed her baby while we sang "Away in a Manger".....such a sweet moment on such a special night.
Jordan was thrilled to play the part of the angel, although he and Megan kept arguing throughout the day whether angels are boys or girls. He also took his role very seriously and I loved watching him as he listened so intently to the words to know what he should be doing.
Christmas Eve is never complete without some string serenading.

We had forgotten our camera, but luckily Uncle Adam brought along his camera to get some great shots. He loves taking pictures of our Megpie because she loves to pose for pictures and really hams it up, as you can see......

Your children are so precious. The pics of Megan as Mary should be published somewhere! She is so beautiful! In the first picture, Jordan looks like a cute little Peter Pan to me! Adam's camera is amazing! I just found out that for the last year my camera has been set to low resolution!!! The difference in clarity is amazing. Thanks for the beautiful post! XO
