Graves Family Christmas

We celebrated Christmas with Abe's family earlier in the month. 

Here is Grandma Karen telling the nativity story before we acted it out.  We had been reading scriptures and read about King Herod, so when the part came about the 3 wise men Hudson asked Grandma about him.  I was surprised because we had only talked about it that one time!  This kid has a great memory.

Getting ready...
Abe and Hudson were shepherds and Ella was their sheep.  I was Mary and Olivia was baby Jesus, since she was technically the youngest grandchild.

Then Santa came for a visit!  We actually got to perform the nativity story for him.

and then he had a present for each of the kids!


Olivia had already fallen asleep

And, not the best pictures, but these are the girls Christmas outfits from Grandma Karen- so cute!


(and this 'deer in the headlights' look is quite common from our Olivia, so silly)
