The holiday season is here- can't believe it! We put up our Christmas tree yesterday (a big thanks to Jackie for scoring this awesome tree for us on Black Friday while Marie and I were in the neverending Walmart line!). Anyways, I let the kids put out the nativity scene as well. Last year, my sister in law bought them non-breakable figurines for this so they aren't constantly clanking together my ceramic ones- what a great idea! Don't they look cute playing with baby Jesus? Before you think they are just the perfect little Catholic children......these pictures were taken just minutes before the sultan (one of the kings) turned into a Jedi and began lightsaber fighting the sheperd and it became an all out war. Anna was yelling "Mom- Alex thinks baby Jesus is on the dark side and I told him that he can't be because he's Jesus!" Alex: "Anna- the emperor TURNED him to the dark side!!" More screaming, fighting, hitting and finally the sweet Catholic children were banned from playing with the nativity for the night. At least the tree is still standing! I'm still watching Alex like a hawk with it though because last year I bought him a set of 12 star wars character ornaments and I keep waiting for some kind of galactic war to break out in my new tree.
