Live Nativity

Last year I found out about Provo's Live Nativity and really wanted to go,

but it only runs for one weekend and we missed it.

Luckily I found out about it ahead of time this year,

and we went with some friends.

It started with a nativity show inside the Provo Tabernacle,

and then we were able to go outside and see the live animals.

There was a big crowd around the animals at first, but it quickly died down

and we were able to get up close for a few photos.

(Of course Ethan refused to be in any of the pictures.)

Here's Julia next to the llama.
This is the same llama
that made the night much more exciting
when it escaped from its pen
and took off running around the yard
next to the Tabernacle.

We were worried that it would go through the gate into the street
but luckily they caught it before that happened.

It was such a fun night!
