La Posada

A church, not too far from our house, hosts a La Posada parade every year to celebrate Jesus’ birth.  This year, we decided to check the animals and parade out in effort to soak up as many Christmas memories are possible.

We weren’t able to see any of the actual parade, but did make it in time to see the animals arrive at the church for the live nativity scene. 

B seemed to be most impressed/fascinated by the sheep as he would point to them and say “seeep” and then make his own little version of a sheep sound “baaaahhhaaaa!!!!”  The camels were a little late on their entrance…B had lost almost all interest by the time they trotted by…but C and I thought it was incredible to see the camels walk past us and then kneel in front of the manger scene.

After the camels’ grand entrance, we politely excused ourselves to check out the children’s petting zoo.  C led B into meet the sheep, goats, bunnies, and chickens.  Initially, B didn’t know what to do with all the four legged friends…but seemed to warm up rather quickly in the end.

Here’s to simple family memories!

Happy Monday.

Be blessed.

Merry Christmas!!!
