Our own Christmas Pageant

This year I decided that I wanted my kids to be in a Christmas Pageant. Braden's preschool does a Christmas concert and the church does various Christmas activities, but no pageant... so I decided to write and direct my own. I am very thankful that I have friends who are as crazy as I am and agreed to participate.
We transformed the dining room into our stage and we were off...of course Rozy's bed got utilized so she also enjoyed all the pageant preparations:
We started with some dress rehearsals/playdates...



Then came opening night...
The crowd: family friends and local celebrities (including Mary Cummings who took many of these pictures for us!):
They sang their hearts out:"Joy to the World" Finale with instruments.

The cast:
Joseph: Braden Lee
Mary: Addy Ritner
Shepherds: Coleman Lee and Jax Ritner
Head Angel: Lily King
Heavenly Host: Sophia and Olivia Simone
Three Wisemen: Jack Irving, Parker King, Jackson Obie
Stable Animals: Harper Obie and Ella Irving The brothers enjoyed their costumes...
Post-performance cookieSinging again...
Addy and Braden singing their song Silent night at one of the rehearsals:

If I knew how to upload the video of the event to a computer I would...
