The Tree

We got to participate in the Tree as a family this year. Avery had a speaking part. She didn't get too excited over it, but she did the animals. 

Ross was a wiseman attendent, but he also was in a choir performance called Snow Days. It  was so good! 

Always one of my favorite scenes. 

Word is Bro. Jerry may have doubted Avery's ability to handle the part. :) He came around and she did amazingly well! 

Animals! Animals! Animals!

Ross kissed a camel. Actually, the camel took a animal cracker from Ross's mouth. He did mine too and it was super cool! 

Ms. Mari had tons of activities for the kiddos planned. One was making gingerbread houses. 

Our last night! 

It was such a hectic year we didn't get the usual pictures, but Benjo and I managed a selfie after the last show. 

The kids also climbed to the top of the tree after the last show. I wasn't sure if Avery would make it the whole way, but she did. 

Boss is a pro by now with the climb. 

All smiles before the climb down. 

Headed home to rest up for the last week of school. We love the Christmas village at church.
