O Little Town of Bethlehem

For our Ward party we had a night in Bethlehem. It was amazing how the church gymnasium was transformed into Bethlehem with wheat stalks and all. We paid our taxes to the Roman's (pennies given to us in a cloth sack), sat on blankets and ate yummy chicken pitas, fruit, hummus, and brownies. I'm sure they had brownies in Bethlehem. Everyone was dressed up in their biblical clothing and the Youth performed the nativity while Luke 2 was read. Jane loved walking around to everyone seated as her level. Emily loved having her cousin Bentley there to laugh with and chase around.
