Bethlehem play "teaser"

I should have been doing a lot of things this afternoon - I have 3 clients, a girl scout campfire, and a ward party tomorrow, all of which could have used some preparation today. But no. I have been under a lot of pressure from Pearl to make the costumes for the Bethlehem Play, so that's what I did.

Here's Max modeling the sheep costume. I know, adorable, right! I also did a shepherd costume for Jack, and did a sparkly angel cape for Pearl. Thank goodness Mom had a Mary costume and Sherry had a Joseph costume (a real Saudi Arabian outfit Gary got on travel over there when Jared was a little older than Sam... it's perfect!). Here are the hats for the rest of the babies.
The donkey is my favorite. I sincerely hope they all fit their respective owners. I think we might have to have a "dress rehearsal" when I go over for Sunday dinner. The hats actually were very easy, now that I know what I'm doing (after the Halloween sizing fiasco). Sherry's thinking I might have to make hats for Maya and Jared's cousin's children (well, the older girl will probably have to be Mary...). I sense a tradition coming on...
