Critter Barn Nativity



Jayden and Granny took a road trip today to the Critter Barn for their live nativity. As you can see, there were many different critters hanging out here! There was a bull, a horse named Henry, a donkey named Roger, goats galore, bunnies to the roof, a room crammed with cats (17 is what we counted!), plus baby chicks and ducks, geese, chickens, and sheep. Every hour, there was a retelling of the Nativity Story about the birth of Jesus in a manger, surrounded by animals.I hope it wasn't SO SMELLY in the manger where Baby Jesus was born!! There was definately a strong scent of barnyard going on... They had cider and doughnuts for the kids, drawings for doorprizes, and memberships offered since Critter Barn is open year-round and there are always things going on.There are two barns to visit, plus outdoor pens. The second barn had a model of the expansion plans that Critter Barn has for the near future, a tractor, and Christmas tree to enjoy. This is a great place for kids and adults alike. Earthy odor and all~Jayden loved it!
