family christmas party

a few weeks ago, my family got together to celebrate christmas. it was a little early, but some folks were going to hawaii (how nice), and my mom is going away for christmas. so better early than never, right?

we had a nice, relaxed dinner, which included soup in breadbowls. w and s both thought the breadbowls were a cool idea. then we got down to business. we always have a family nativity play. this year, my mom decided we'd do a book of mormon christmas play.

some of the fam--pre show.

tricia and don dudded up.

isaac with his proud parents looking on.

william as samuel the lamanite standing on the city wall.

the wicked unbelievers throwing rocks and shooting arrows.

leah joining in on the action.

mom doing a good job orchestrating the play.

cyleste being a narrator.

b being a narrator.

sierra--the star--over mary, baby jesus, and joseph.


after the play, we enjoyed the super delicious tres leches cake i made. not much beats tres leches. and with the pommegranate seeds on top, it was tres bueno!

All I can say is: Y'all have way too much fun. I notice S and W both have roles where they're standing on bookshelves. What fun for them! And your mom is one impressive director. She always have such fun ideas.
