We walked along a path of flickering candles in ice blocks (luminaries) and stopped at different stations to look at the people shivering in their biblical costumes. It was so cold, all the children had gone inside.<br /><br />There's Anita, a member of Church on the Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08928528872289081063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502152359497137754.post-1380354620906151962012-12-28T23:29:42.067-05:002012-12-28T23:29:42.067-05:00You're so right, Barb.

That seemed to be the consensus...that they would participate but only if they didn't have to talk. So, Shirley was the Narrator and everyone else acted. <br /><br />I forgot to mention that Shirley also assumed the role of Director, PTL!

Tsk Tsk LOL<br /><br />I don't blame you a bit - the 22nd was COLD! It's one of the reasons all the animals were on the set to start with because it was too cold in the barn for them.

I'm sorry I missed so much of the Inky stuff this month because of this project and at one point I said I'd never do it again because of the time and stress involved. <br /><br />But I was in the audience with 2 cameras and heard the comments and saw the smiling faces filled with anticipation before, and satisfaction afterward and that's what I'll remember if we Anita Mae Draperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07759232889762510956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502152359497137754.post-27310374342893240682012-12-28T10:59:32.430-05:002012-12-28T10:59:32.430-05:00Oh well done, Anita.

I don't think I've ever been to a nativity play, either. I always thought it would be so neat to see one.<br /><br />I'm glad you were able to do the script. And I'm so glad you shared this with us.
