JosephOfGalilee: AFK for a bit w/@MaryofNazareth. Headed to Bethlehem. #caesartax
JosephOfGalilee: @MaryofNazareth says no baby tonight. But can’t be long now.
MaryofNazareth: Off to Bethlehem! Hope we find a good inn. @JosephOfGalilee waited until last minute. #caesartax
MaryofNazareth: Bethlehem is a zoo. @JosephOfGalilee says @InnKeeper1 claimed “no room”. Uh-oh.
JosephOfGalilee: No room at the inn. @InnKeeper1 and @InnKeeper2 both. Kill me now. @MaryofNazareth not looking happy.
MaryofNazareth: RT: @JosephOfGalilee No room at the inn. @InnKeeper1 and @InnKeeper2 both. Kill me now. **Anyone???** #caesartax
JosephOfGalilee: @InnKeeper3 says ‘no room’, but to go to a stable. Like animals. @MaryofNazareth beside herself.
MaryofNazareth: Now at a stable. Surrounded by animals. Baby is coming. If not for baby, I wouldn’t even talk to @JosephOfGalilee right now.
JosephOfGalilee: Baby on its way!
JosephOfGalilee: Baby has arrived! @MaryofNazareth says its name is Jesus!
JosephOfGalilee: Jesus now wrapped in cloth, placed in manger. @MaryofNazareth very tired.
Sheepmaster: WHOA. Just got visit by an angel. Said baby was born in Bethlehem. Going to check this out with @ShepherdDude and @Flockof240.
