On Wednesday Michaela and I went to the Yalecrest Live Nativity. The foods teacher at Bountiful High is in the LDS Ward that contributes to this, along with several other faiths. I was so sad that I wasn't able to go last year, but so EXCITED to go this year. You walked in past Soldiers, sat around the fire sipping hot chocolate while listening to Angels singing. After a short walk past the live Camel you came to the Manger and listened to the story of Christmas, what a spiritual and truly great experience. Really reminded me what is important this time of year. And now for some pictures.
And it came to pass in those days that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem.
To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with Child.
And she brought forth her first born son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, whent before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.
When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts,; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.
