Nativities

I have an ongoing collection of nativity sets. Each year I try to add a couple of more. By last count, I have 17. Pretty soon I will run out of places to display them, not to mention storing them the other 11 months of the year. But I love finding the new and unusual ones. Here are a few of them.

Bear nativity



Brendan sent this one to me from Brazil last year

A table full of fun ones. Some are music boxes or snow globes. The middle one folds up into a box.

Collecting nativities is such a fun tradition! I am glad that you had such a good Thanksgiving with your family. I loved the pictures.

Wow, I really did miss a lot of posts! I love all your nativities, the bear one is so cute! This reminds me of a nativity display they do in AZ where tons of people get all their nativites and set them up all over a church building and you can go and see them for a few days. I always thought it was so neat. I didn't have one until last year and I complained about it and I got two, one from Kris and one from my mother-in-law! Maybe it's a collection just beginning :) actually, I collect Santa mugs!
