One of our family holiday activities this year was going to a live nativity in Alpine. We bundled up and headed out to brave the cold. There were soldiers riding horses and we walked a lit path to a barn. The barn had live animals and people dressed during the time of Christ. Some of them were working, baking and playing as the people did. We walked another lit path to another barn. There we saw the setting of Joseph, Mary and baby Jesus in a manger. It was the most sweetest, reverent feeling. There were about 10 adults and 6-8 children at the time...not one of them made a "peep". M stood at the little fence and just stared...not saying a word (shocker I know, she is my daughter). As we left she whispered to My Hubby..."that was baby Jesus".

After the nativity we went back to Grammy & Grampa's house for a wonderful meal. G&G had a gift for each of the grandkids...yep...jammies!! They loved opening their first Christmas present of the year. They all looked so cute, warm and cuddly.
Thank you Grammy & Grampa for a wonderful evening of food, family and fun!
