We decided for the first time ever to have a Nielsen Family Christmas party this year. It was at our house and we decided to have dinner and then to re-enact the Nativity because Sean's family grew up doing that.
We had spaghetti, salad, rolls, and dessert and then proceeded to get all of the "actors" in costume. After finding enough bath towels, we proceeded to the living room for Grandpa LaMarr to read the story while we sang and had the kids re-enact the story. My kids are so much older than the rest, it looked like we had giant wisemen. Trevin and Alexis were Joseph and Mary and we had a couple of little rabbits instead of sheep, but it was cute! Travis and Tyrel tried their hardest to stay out of camera range.
This is a picture of Diane and LaMarr in front of our tree.
This was a fun family tradition that I hope we can continue.

That was a fun tradition! The only pictures I got of your boys they look so bored in. Carter was a lamb, but you couldn't tell. I didn't have anything to dress him up in, so he just ended up with a tail pinned to his pants, oh well.
