Live Nativity

For family home evening we got together with some families in our ward and went the live Nativity in Alpine. It was amazing! When we got off our shuttle bus we were met by Roman Soldiers on horse. Then we followed the path to a barn which was turned into the town of Bethlehem with camels, sheep, goats, people spinning wool, making bread and living just like they would when Christ was born. We then traveled to the next barn where 4 men were a top singing Christmas carols. As we entered the next barn we saw Mary and Joseph and the sweet baby Jesus. Such a beautiful experience. I know my kids are young but this was really a special way to teach them about the birth of our Savior.

What a cool nativity - Do they only do it for one weekend or is it on throughout the Christmas season? I would love to go!
