Ward Christmas Party

First things first...the food. It was delicious! We had a great Ward Christmas party this year. I loved the fact that they really tried focusing on Jesus Christ, and the celebration of his birth vs. the whole Santa thing. They did a great job too. I brought a dessert & this is what I made: brownie reindeer.

I had been wondering why Kenley was all dressed in white for the dinner...then after she got all accessorized, I figured it out. She was the lucky one to portray the angel.


They gave head scarves to the primary children as well, and they looked like a whole bunch of shepherds.

They had a special musical number by the activity girls & some extras. Victoria is there in the red and black dress.

They read the scriptural account of our Savior's birth and re-enacted the manger scene.

Then all the primary children sang "Away in the Manger." They did such a wonderful job.

Then the young men and women sang a song. Christianna was just amazed. She just sat and stared right up at them the entire time. It was adorable!

The evening was great and it always makes things better when you can celebrate with your family and many friends.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

I hope we all can remember the true meaning of why we celebrate this special time of the year.
