Live Nativity

Last week there was a live Nativity in Glenwood. I forgot my camera, but one of the wisemen was kind enough to email me a few pictures!

Kids...

Anna, Elsie, Benjamin, Charlie, Arne, Karina, Oliver, Ray


The three youngest Spohr grandkids: Anna, Arne, Karina




(above) Arne's first time on his NEW quilt...clearly he loves it!
(below) Arne's first time being held in his NEW quilt with the quilt maker...clearly she loves him!

Merry Christmas from the Hanson boys!

More Christmas...

Arne got to be the Baby Jesus again at the nursing home Christmas pageant in Glenwood...

Charlie took the opportunity to be a sheep again. He only made it about half way through the program though because his wool sheep suit got a little too hot (cuz they set the heat right around 90 degrees). Jenny--notice the nice picture above the barn roof. I didn't crop it out for your benefit.)


On Tuesday, Santa was at the nursing home in Starbuck...so off we went. We even got a picture of the whole family with Santa!

during the practice. I love this face...


Sheep...




All done. sheep squirms, baby sleeps!

Videos!

I've been a bit video happy lately...
so enjoy, and don't feel bad if you aren't as enthralled with a 2+ minute video of Arne cooing and me and Charlie making baby noises in the background.
Me, on the other hand? I could watch them all day...but as it turns out I've got live mode 24/7 --so that's even better.
The Dancing Charlie video is from after the band concert last night in Herman. Both Grandma and Grandpa Hanson were directing. (Wish I had a video of Grandma Shirley dancing and singing with the kids!)
