Our First Nativity Pageant

This Christmas season I decided that maybe we would have enough actors [grandkids] to play out the first Christmas. It was so fun and the kids made it such a great experience.

I enlisted  the help of Perry Como and his narration and songs of the first Christmas. Perry Como's Christmas songs were some of my favorites as a child.

I began a few weeks before the anticipated presentation by making costumes, the manger and a few manger animals. Deseret Industries helped out a lot too.





Kaylee and Coy played Mary and Joseph perfectly.



We needed two angels to play this role.

Brenna and Emma


Our shepherds Ian and Lucy stole all of our hearts.






Parker took his part seriously as our only wiseman.





That was our first production. Coy already has given me instructions as to how
I should build the stable next year. We'll see.


Merry Christmas!
