We went to our ward Christmas party last night. It was a night in Bethlehem.  They had us wear robes and clothes that maybe they wore in the time of Jesus. We were taxed a can of food to come into the city.  We were given eight gold shillings to pay for our food that we bought from street vendors.  Dinner was pita bread with hummus, meat, cucumbers, tomatoes, & avocado.  They also had olives and dates.  We ate on the floor on blankets and listened to the scripture story of Joseph and Mary.  It was such a great idea and we had a good time.

We did something like that our first Christmas in CA. I thought it was the coolest thing ever!
