Journey to Bethlehem

This year we decided to kick off our Christmas celebrating by going to a little festival called "Journey to Bethlehem."  Some of the churches in the Huntsville area get together and make a little town with different booths where you learn about the times when Jesus lived.  Our kids had a great time and loved each of the stations. 

 Mackenzie learning to make bricks. 

These were little clay pots they made. 

 Fishing. . .

They also had a stable with Mary and a baby and an angel on top, a basket weaving station which was a huge hit. 

There were several other families there we knew.  Here is Tori hanging out with two of her friends, Sophie Booth and Riley Dingle.  These girls kept following the wedding party that would walk around and then do a wedding dance.
