And to you!
The concert sounds wonderful!!!
I’m still planning for our Nativity Play. We have 15 Shepherds this year but five of them are girls! We’ve only had my own girls as “Shepherd Wives” before this. Because we have a new director, we are tweaking our props. Lots of Webkins sheep and my older daughter is carrying a pot with a chicken in it.
We have an Archangel Michael, with a sword and the whole lot. The Archangel Mom and I were talking about adding two more boys, Raphael and Gabriel. Now it’s getting the okay and buying props.
We laughed how Gabriel could hold a fax machine and Raphael an AK-47 but I think the staff, scroll and trumpet are more realistic.
Those are SO MUCH FUN! For years, Hubby and I did the local parish Christmas Story. We had one young fellow (narrator) reading the gospel, and then the others acted out the shepherds, wise men and holy family. Congregation and choir sang the hymns that went with each part. Then big party downstairs with a santa.
Very small rural parish but lots of love and laughter.
