No room at the inn!

Last night I gained added insight into the nativity and the kids learned a thing or two.

We had combined with a couple of families to have a special family night. Shania and Andrew were the only two of our kids that made it to the event, but that is a whole different story and suffice it to say, we'll be trying again when behavior is better. Good luck!!!

Anyway, since we didn't have any little kids to play the parts the teenagers and older kids had to step in (they were thrilled to death) and the adults were playing the part of the innkeepers. The grandmother of one of the families was designated as the first innkeeper and the conversation began as such:

Knock on door

Innkeeper: Hello?

Joseph: Do you have any rooms?

Innkeeper: Are you married?

Joseph: Uhhhh . . . .

Innkeeper: Well, I guess I don't have any room.


We were laughing so hard we had to stop the whole production. And what was even funnier was the grandma just sat there with a smile on her face as if there wasn't a single problem with what she had said.

Things don't change and too bad you can't follow through in today's world as grandma did last night.
