The night of the 23rd we always have our shepherds dinner. I make stew, challah bread (a Jewish Sabbath bread) and latkes. We dress up as shepherds and eat on the floor by light of the Christmas tree. We talk about the significance of the shepherds, why the angels appeared to them, and why Christ is called The Good Shepherd. It's a wonderful evening...one of my very favorite traditions.
Four very cute shepherds!
