Birthday Party for Jesus...

On Saturday, December 4th our church had a Birthday Party for Jesus.  It was a very special evening and we had a great turnout (about 100 people).  We had a family craft time, story time, singing, and potluck dinner.  We also had a wonderful surprise, it snowed during the party!!!  It was our first snow of the winter and it was beautiful.   

Here is our family and our friends, the Lundbergs, working on their crafts.  They are making a "Countdown to Christmas" craft. 

All the children gathering around for story time.

Telling the Christmas story using the "What God Wants For Christmas" manger scene from Family Life. 

 Gathering everyone together to sing Christmas songs.

 Singing Praises to God.

 Here is our yummy Potluck spread.

All the delicious desserts and Birthday Cakes.

 Families gathered together to eat and celebrate.

The snow is coming down hard.

This is the Winter Wonderland we came home to.
