Family Christmas Eve: The Nativity

So all of a sudden I feel like I have a lot to post. I guess that is what happens with the holidays. Yesterday Scott and I worked in the morning and then we headed up to my brother's for a little Christmas Eve party. We ate soup and watched a video of the family slides from before I was born... that is what I get for being the youngest! Then we put on the Nativity. Chloe wanted to be Mary so she could hold baby Tanner/Jesus. Matt was Joseph, Addy was an Angel, Scott was the donkey, Landon was a dog, and Easton was a train... not sure when those last two joined the Nativity, but it kept the kids happy.
Mary, Joseph, and the donkey on the way to Bethlehem.And Baby Jesus is born.The Angel announcing the good news.The group.So Scott always seems to get worn out at family gatherings... he is the favorite uncle, or maybe it's just the favorite jungle gym. Sometimes I feel bad for him, but he is already trying to teach our son to pounce me. He got me last night and tried to get the little guy to get me from inside! I think I might be in trouble in the years to come.So I have two more cute pictures to share. Here is my mom holding Tanner on his first Christmas Eve.I also have another very cute little nephew. Here is Easton eating his Dutch pancake that is Betsy's family tradition. They were yummy and Easton was excited to eat his.
