No room at the Inn

Tonight we took a journey to Bethlehem (around our neighborhood). I had called some of our neighbors and asked them that when we came over and asked if we could come in from the cold to tell us no that they had no room for us. At last I asked a neighbor with a shed to tell us they had no room but we could go out to their shed if we wanted to. Once in there by a flashlight I read the Christmas story and told the kids how important it is for us to make sure there is always room for Jesus in our home and our lives. Then we came home and made an Inn that had room for Mary and Joseph ( a gingerbread house). It was great for us and all our sweet neighbors who didn't want to tell us no. We sang Picture a Christmas for our opening hymn and Stars were gleaming for our closing.
