Well, the Christmas season is in full swing!  How do I know that?  Well, it's because I feel like I never get to sit down.  This weekend was a prime example.  Kate had three Nutcracker performances, which she did amazingly well in, and she and Jack both participated in the St. James Christmas Pageant.  Jack was a very handsome shepherd and Kate was a very loving Mary.  Peter did not participate, much to Jack's chagrin, as he was slated to be a sheep and Jack wanted to be his shepherd.  The decision for Peter not to participate was made after he tackled Jack on the alter during the children's sermon at the early service.  We were proud.  Anyway, our crazy weekend has come to an end.  Here are some pictures from the pageant .

Mary, Joseph, Jesus and Ernie the donkey.

Mary decided to go sans glasses.

Mary and the cutest shepherd.

Downtime before their call to stage...

An inn without a room...

Their song.  Don't worry, we have video too.

She looks very motherly, she must have a good role model.

A singing shepard.  We could hear him above all.

Places everyone...

The final song...
