The Nativity

My mom really wanted a special nativity this year and so she made a project out of putting together legit costumes.  

Joseph and Mary

Angel Gabriel, a shepherd, and his lamb.

Gabriel visits Mary

Mary and Joseph get married.

They go to Bethlehem to pay taxes while Mary rides a donkey.  Joseph's not sure how he feels about the whole situation.  He's probably exhausted from never getting a chance to ride the donkey...

Jesus was born and they wrapped him in swaddling clothes and lay him in a manger.

An angel visited the shepherds.

The shepherds visited Jesus and brought him a little pomeranian lamb on a leash as a gift.

Some very bearded wise men in the East saw a new star in the sky and knew that a king was born.

They brought gifts of plastic gold, real frankincense, and imaginary myrrh.
