We had a great weekend! Our stake puts on a fabulous Night at Bethlehem event every year. Last year when it was really warm they held it inside the gym, this year when it was in the 30's they had it outside! How funny! Anyhow, they put on a really nice program. They have people bring food for the food bank, then they give them little bags of "narble money" as Taylor says and they can go to the Headdress booth (as Taylor did) and the pottery booth and the bakery and visit the Women at the well (for living water). Mary even rode on a real donkey this year(I'm really happy that I didn't have to play her despite our due date). They have an Inn where they go to ask if they have room and lots of people dressed up as Wisemen, shepards, Roman Soldiers, priests. It's really cool! Casey Eichhorn wsa there dressed as a soldier (it was kinda chilly for shorts, if you ask me but maybe the chainmail was a good insulator). Katie and Taylor were pretty good posing as Mary at Joseph. Christina Eichhorn was the one who did up Taylor's headdress, not bad, huh? On a different note, we are scheduled to be induced on Thursday to have our baby. I'm dialated to a 2 already though, so I guess we could go earlier, we'll keep you posted! (ha! get it? posted?)

You're so lucky to be able to have an outdoor Christmas social...if our Branch social had been outside on Friday we would have been froze to death and covered in snow! We've done the night in Bethlehem a couple of times and I think it's always such a fun and spiritual night...Can't wait for your new little one!
I didn't think it ever got cold at your house! That sounds like so much fun, especially being with Taylor and the narbles and his headdress.
