I've been thinking for a while now that I'd like to get a nativity set. I enjoyed playing with my mom's little manger and people and animals for many hours over the course of my childhood Christmases. Did you? I hadn't planned to make it such an investment, but this went straight to the top of the list of our most valued heirlooms! Happened upon it at the local pharmacy the other day. I really must take pictures of that pharmacy while it's decked out for the holidays. Kind of mind-blowing, really. I haven't decided yet if I should just take pics through the front window at dusk after they've closed or I should go ahead and ask permission for inside shots!
Speaking of pictures, I had two of the three grands over today for a Christmas card photo shoot. If I may say so myself, we've got a whole lotta cute goin' on up here!
I must say, all the decor is lovely but the cutest things in your holiday home are definitely the grandkids. Love the big brother and holding his new sister - those tiny feet! And the fairy princess on her rocking horse couldn't be more precious. Of course I'll give you a run for your money with adorable grandkid photos when all four of mine arrive this Christmas. Hehe. And yeah, they'll all be adorable AND exhausting.

What a sweet picture!
The Willow Tree nativity is something that I have wanted for years. I keep saying to myself that I will just buy one piece each year, yet each year passes without it.
