Walking Through Bethlehem

Every year Grace Church of Glendora has a "Walk Through Bethlehem" where the entire church participates. They perform a complete reenactment of life as it was during the time of Jesus' birth. Here's a few scenes from our visit.
On our way to see King Herod...

Walking through downtown Bethlehem...

A rare moment alone with my beautiful wife...

It's just the two of us this time, with no kids!

Cozy wasn't havin' any of it, but Gracie had a chance to talk to Santa about her list...

Gracie reenacting the Nativity scene...

Grace actually did this whole set up on her own.

Only Grace would think to use a purple feather boa for the manger, Snow White costume, pink Super Girl cape, and Webkinz accessories to reenact the Birth Of Christ...Priceless!

Just the start of our Christmas decorating...

Our first dinner with our new appliances...

Shrimp gumbo with salmon stuffed with even more shrimp!

Gracie was a little stuffed up in the morning...

Having a laugh with Drew!

Cleaning with Cozy...

Now you see it...Now you don't...

Our kitchen before...

And what it looks like right now...

Happy Halloween 2009

Gracie was a princess and Taylor apparently was "a picture of him in an X-Ray". I guess that sounds better than saying a skeleton.

Happy 1st Birthday Taylor
