Day 352/365: The brightest thing about this season is why we celebrate it - the birth of Jesus Christ! Our local churches from our small town of Pillager, MN had a live drive-through nativity scene last night and tonight. (We went last night). It was amazing! As we drove through they gave us a pamphlet with the story of each "scene" that they recreated for us. Scene One: "The Travelers" illustrated how Joseph and Mary traveled nearly 100 miles to Bethlehem. Scene Two: "The Angels" showed how the angel of the Lord appeared to the shepherds proclaiming good news of great joy! Scene Three: "The Shepherds." The shepherds went with great haste to see the baby that the angels had announced. Scene Four: "The Manger." Oh what it would have been like to be a shepherd on that wonderful night. To come across Joseph and Mary watching over their precious new baby boy! Scene Five: "The Wisemen" who brought gifts of gold and frankincense and myrrh. This truly was the most amazing experience! It really made our kids ask so many new questions now that they were able to really see what this event actually looked like! How thankful I am to all of these special people who put this on to truly illustrate why we celebrate Christmas! He is the reason for our season!

I have taken on a challenge to take one photo a day for this entire year. I have been excited to join up with an amazing community of talented photographers who have also taken on this challenge. The goals I have for myself this year is to, first of all, complete the whole year of 365 photos. I also want to allow this challenge to teach me all I can about the equipment I have in order to better myself as a photographer. I am excited to learn and experience so much this year through this challenge. Thank you for taking the time to look through my journey. It truly means a lot to me. Archives
