We Three Kings...or Four

Last night was our ward party and our family was asked to be wise men for the live nativity. Yes, I was a pregnant wise man. lol. I forgot to ask someone to take pictures during it so here's a couple of just the kids afterwards. My costume was just a blanket draped over my shoulders and Scott's was like David's except that his sheet was wrapped around him like a robe. I worked all day to get them excited about this, because past experience says they will get very unhappy and uncooperative if they notice people are looking at them more than usual. David understood that he was going out there to give baby Jesus his present. Well the kids were awesome! I'm sure it helped that they turned all the lights out over the audience so they couldn't see all the people, but both our kids just walked out there no problem and sat down quietly. No fidgeting with costumes or trying to run away. And David jumped right up after a minute when I told him it was time to give Jesus his present. The whole thing was SO cute(even though I myself felt a little silly), and everyone thought they were the cutest. Afterwards Sydney didn't seem to mind her costume even still and was content just wandering around in it. So cute. =)
