Merry Merry Christmas!

As always, life just sort of flew for the month of December. Here are the highlights.

Billy volunteered to be the shepherd this year in the Nativity at Grace. Scott stepped in as well since Stacy was home resting and preparing for the arrival of Georgia's, now we know, baby sister!!

Welcome to Sophia Notaras Murphy on December 22nd!

Henry was not thrilled with being a lamb this year. He wanted to be a dog. More specifically, Scooby-Doo a la Halloween costume (which was too small on Halloween if you remember). I actually gave the costume to the church in the hopes that another smaller child might want to wear it for the Nativity.
Here they are, Henry's big entrance. He mostly stayed with his shepherd. Except when he didn't.
Aaaaand, he's gone.

Hanging out with the cast.

Not that I'm a pushy mother or anything, but can you not see a future Mary and Joseph??

The minute Henry had the chance he grabbed the Scooby-Doo costume. Good thing the little boy who was meant to wear it wasn't in it.

Then it was Christmas Tree shopping time.

And of course our little actor wouldn't take off the lamb costume.

Next up: Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer!

Playing at a wonderful little theater in the woods.

This place is really cool. In the summer they have a carousel.

Henry decided to check out the stage before the show began.

After the play, autographs and pictures!

Hi Santa and Hermey!

Henry's favorite: surprisingly, Rudolf!

We're ready for Christmas!
