"Twas the Night

Last night, your church held "Twas the Night," a Christmas celebration for the younger children.  Children were told they could wear their pj's, bring a pillow, blanket, or stuffed animal, and come to hear stories and more.  We had a very nice time.  The kids were very excited for it allday.

The evening started with the story of Baby Jesus' birth.  On Christmas Eve, the kids are invited back for a Christmas Eve service and a birthday party for Jesus.



There were a lot of children there, some from the preschool that we hadn't met before.  After the nativity story, a suprise visitor showed up.  Santa read "Twas the Night before Christmas" to the kids.



 The kids then had the chance to sit with Santa, eat milk and cookies, make crafts, and shop at the $1.00 Gingerbread store for Christmas presents.  Madison reported to Santa she wanted a flower pot, Barbie dollhouse, and an American Girl doll.


 Luke made sure to tell Santa he wanted Legos and a Nerf gun.


 The surprise was Alex.  He wouldn't sit with Santa at Edward's work party, but he was very excited to go up and see Santa last night.  He told Santa he wanted cars and blocks.
