Christmas Dinner

As I mentioned in my before-the-holidays post, we went to the Black Bear Jamboree on Christmas Day. Below is a layout that Aly and I completed to showcase the photos, and the memories. I've since journaled in the large green box, and the text is included below. Supplies on this LO include papers and elements from an old Christmas kit (Basic Gray Fruitcake, I believe). This also begins to show my love of stickles, which don't show up very well in the photo.



Journaling now reads,
We've been to Gatlinburg lots of times, even in the winter, but we'd never been on Christmas Day. To celebrate, we went to the Black Bear Jamboree dinner and show.
It wasn't as cheesy as we expected, and the food was actually pretty good. Raggedy Ann was a little bit freaky - I hope that woman's voice in real life is several octaves lower.
After the dolls taught the grumpy bears the true meaning of Christmas, the cast (including someone closely resmbling our server) donned angel wings and assembled for the nativity scene. Knowing this had to be the final act, and hoping to avoid the long lines we endured on the way in, Mike asked if I was ready to leave. And Zak immediately replied ... "You can't walk out on Baby Jesus!"

Another Edwards family quote for the ages.
