We got the Fisher Price nativity set out today...Abigail, Joy, and Esther helped set it up. This is the only time that the coffee table can be played on...we cover it just for the Nativity set. Graham came over a little later and he started telling the Christmas story. The angel told the shepherds about Jesus' birth and then they moved the shepherds from the field to go see the baby in the manger. Esther "parked" the camels and the donkey behind the inn...and insisted much to the others dismay that they stay there. If they got moved...she moved them right back. It was cute. We usually set this up on Thanksgiving Day and we will all be away...so it is set up for the Christmas holidays.Woody walked to town for another meeting. On the way home, he stopped at the community center and spun on the exercise bike for a half hour. Later in the day he discovered that one of the tires on our car was going down...it had a nail in it...so Woody had to take the car to get the tire fixed before it went totally flat. So another "thing" done for the trip that we didn't know that was going to have to be done.
I have worked on a book order for the church library. I went to the church library to work for several hours. Now I have to finish the book order. Woody is going to go over to sit at Nathan and Kathy's after they put the children to bed so they can do a little Christmas shopping.
I adore the FP nativity scene! Wish they were available when my son was young. He always "parked" the camels across the room from our nativity set. They were not to be moved, unless he moved them on the day he belived the wise men would have arrived at the manger. You have to love the way they think!
