Here's one of the scenes from one of the practice sessions.
Here, the Three Wise Men (Dad, Steve Aurand, and Jim Bair) have met up with Herod (Me). At this point, I was getting rather frustrated over the whole situation.
In this scene, I believe the Angel (Joel Sickler) is telling Joseph (Adam Sickler) to take Mary and Jesus to Egypt.
This would have been shortly before I "died." I think there were some people that were surprised by that scene in the program.
Here's Mary (Angela Sickler) and Joseph - I believe they were getting ready to leave for Egypt at this point. If you look to the far left of this picture, you will see our narrator extraordinaire (my Mother).
Here's the program MC Dean Sickler - that's Hannah Sickler setting up a small Nativity Scene.
Here's our Church string trio (Angela, Serena and Julia Sickler) - it's usually a string duet, but Julia was able to be here for the program.
