2011 Holiday Bucket Listing :: Live Nativity

We have been thoughtfully working through our 2011 Holiday Bucket List and one of the things that I was most looking forward to was the Live Nativity in the Glen and it did not disappoint. It's an amazing multi-denominational event put on each year, right here in our neck of the woods...nestled in a gulley made to perfectly resemble that Holy Night. It is definitely a tradition that we will look forward to for many years to come!


 It was a freezing night and the lines were so long, but Leah was a good sport as we stood and waited to enter the gates of Bethlehem.



We wandered through the town, listening to the beautiful choir, enjoying our figs and pita bread, and taking it all in as we followed the star to the stable...


...and we were once again gently reminded of the real reason we celebrate this holiday season.


It was a perfect night, indeed.
