Christmastime....

We had a wonderful Christmas. It gets more and more fun as the years go by and the kids understand more of what Christmas is really about.

Here is Josiah's version of the Christmas story:

"Long time ago there was an an angel. And guess what the angel said? He said 'fear not I bring you good news.' (and the good news story means that the shepherds were afraid from the angel...) but the angel said 'fear not.' and he said 'go to Bethlehem to see the baby.' and Mary and Joseph were here with the baby. It was baby Jesus. and Jesus came back alive after he was dead."

Not too bad for a 4 year old... At least we've finally convinced him that Santa Claus wasn't one of the three wisemen...

The girls love to dress up in their dressup clothes, and Josiah's favorite gift was his new remote controlled car!


(I am not thrilled about how these pictures are showing up on here... might take me a bit to figure out how to get them to show up in the right spots!!)

That's a great version of the Christmas story. Did he add the last part about Jesus resurrecting after the live nativity story that you guys went to?
