Bethlehem's Best...

Grandma's 5 year old angel was in his first Christmas pageant...

They have been practicing for weeks and were so excited...

then stage fright overcame the boys and they became statues of angels.

Once their part in the performance was over however,

they reverted to their former selves and talked and poked each other

as they enjoyed the rest of the puppet show.

















The best part was when the animals were helping Mary to put baby Jesus in the manger and they misjudged where the edge was and tipped him out. It was a long fall and the whole audience gasped. The Sunday School coordinator just happened to be sitting on the floor where she could direct the program and managed to save the baby and return him to his bed of straw and all was well. Then we could have a good giggle, but times were tense for a miniute.
















Next stop - Christmas Eve - I can hardly wait...
