~~~The Reason For The Season~~~~

THIS is the reason for the season, as we all know. We are celebrating the birth of Christ on this very HOLY day. My wish for you all is that He will bless you all abundantly with what it is you need and fill your hearts with love. This is my Hummel nativity and every piece is precious to me. As you saw I have another nativity under the tree but this is right in the foyer to greet our guests. Joe started this collection for me for our 25th anniversary. Our best friends gave us the creche that year too. I love setting it up every year and seeing it every day throughout the season.

Gradually we added the wise men,

the shepards and the fabulous camels and other animals.

Aren't they beautiful. I actually didn't want Joe to get the camels, thinking they were too expensive but I am sure glad he didn't listen to me!

The shepards and a tiny angel keeping watch

This is Joe's favorite one. He loves the expression of humility on his face.

The donkey and cow keeping the baby warm.

This little guy playing a song for the baby.

The wise men humbly offering their gifts.

I want to thank you all for being my loyal followers and friends! It means so much to me that you would take time to visit me and my blog and even leave a comment. Wishing you all a truly BLESSED Christmas!!! XO, Pinky
