O Little Town of Bethlehem Layout

One of our favorite things to do during the Christmas season is Journey to Bethlehem, a local church's recreation of the town of Bethlehem at the time of Christ's birth. It's gotten more elaborate over the years, so we took a lot of photos during our visit in 2015, but I chose to only scrapbook three single page layouts and put the rest of the photos in page protectors. Here's my first layout, showing a fishing boat, a couple of the merchants, and an animal stall. I'm pretty sure there were no llamas in Israel at the time of Christ, but it was still fun to see one!


And here is the hidden journaling card I tucked into a pocket behind the llama picture:
