O Little Town of Bethlehem

This past weekend our neighbors invited us over to their house for a Bethlehem dinner. Basically, we ate food like they did back in the day in Bethlehem--cheese, bread, fruit, nuts, hummus. We also had to eat on the floor. After the dinner they had the kids act out parts in the nativity scene. We thought it'd be fun for Elina to do this with some of her friends. Plus, we thought it would be cute to dress the kids up in Bethlehem-wear. All the kids looked adorable dressed up. Luckily, the adults didn't really have to dress up.

The dinner was simple, but good. The kids really enjoyed sitting on the floor for the meal. The nativity scene was really cute and entertaining. Elina was a shepherd in white carrying a unicorn staff.
