Live Nativity

We've heard how great the Fountain Green's Live Nativity is. We were able to go last night as a family. You get to go on a hayride from the church up to the location of the nativity. It was cold, but we were bundled up pretty good and kept warm.


After the hayride, we watched a short video in some warm tents and then walked through different scenes from the events of Jesus's birth. It ended with Mary and Joseph in a small stable with a donkey. There in a small manger was a cute, content 'baby Jesus'. Each group or family took a few minutes to look in at this scene. Little Princess stayed there for a quite a while and just stared. When we asked her about it later, she said 'Jesus really is alive and he's a baby'. It was the perfect way to remember the true meaning of the season.
