Emily's Nativity Play

December 19 was Emily's last day of school in 2012 and her class put on a nativity play for all of the parents and grandparents. She was an angel and did a great job singing the songs that they (we all!) had been practicing for the last month.

Thankfully, Amy found a costume at a store and we didn't have to get creative with a pillowcase or bedsheet!  Anyway, we thought we'd share some of the pictures from that day:

Here's the scene in her classroom...

 

As expected, it was a little chaotic at times with some of the angels roaming. Also you might notice that Emily (top left) brought her own baby doll to hold throughout the play. Thankfully, Mary did not feel too threatened.

 

Here's Emily with one of her friends, Paige, having fun afterwards!

This above is Ms. Ciara, the trained montessori teacher for Emily, who has been helping Emily learn to write her name, among many other things!

Here's Miss Abbie, who is great with Emily and leads the kids in lots of fun songs and activities.

And this is Ms. Angie, the lead teacher, who has been very good at helping Emily to feel more comfortable at school this fall.

And here's our little angel excited about the party and snacks after the play!

 

Here are a couple of videos too - one of the kids singing "I Have Come with Special News" and the next one of Emily playing with others in the hay and straw.
