You can never have too many Nativity Scenes!

Thanks for the tour, it was great.

Karen, my daughter brought me a nativity scene from Thailand---you would love the celadon creation. Instead of shepherds, there is a hunter with a water buffalo. And the angel is quite intriguing of a man. It's really beautiful! Wish I could see all your nativity scenes! I have the same one I have put up every year for the past 33 years. I have one new one this year---a glass manger scene under a glass dome. Always room for one more...

Beautiful home, Karen!! I'm so jealous of all your nativity sets. I really want to start a collection of them, but only have two right now. And you have the Willow Tree one!!! I love that one!!!

And you were right about the plants! In that first shot (I think) I got a little peek at them. But they add to the beauty of your home. I think you've done a lovely job and your house looks so ready for Christmas!

I love your video! Just beautiful!
Thanks for putting that all together. Mine is too boring since everything is the same as last year except I have white lights instead of colored! Have a great day!
Love you,
Angie xoxo

p.s. I'll be waiting for your cover to cover... :)

I have looked and looked for that "Just right" nativity scene and never have bought one. Yours are all very lovely and uniquely made. Let's go shopping together!

very pretty, thank you for having us. Come by our house the next time you are out. Love, Dana and Daisy.

I love to watch the door via video! And I, like you, am very partial to many nativities. I show mine off in my tour, so stop by if you have time. Merry Christmas!

Dogs eat presents... oh, such truth! You're nativity scenes are great. Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful holiday season!

Jules from "The Roost" said...

Now that is the most creative tour I have been on yet! Loved it :)

Nise' said...

Enjoyed the slide show! I have every intention of buying more nativity sets every year and never remember! Thank you for inviting us into your home.

Heather said...

There's no forgetting the Reason for the Season in your house! I love Snoopy (and all of the Peanuts characters).

Melodie Norman Haas said...

Nice video :) I like that comment about no presents under the tree because dogs eat presents. Thanks for sharing :)

Keetha Broyles said...

There are no presents under my tree yet either - - - - mostly because I haven't BOUGHT or MADE any yet.

Thanks for the tour.

Merry Christmas

Love the video tour with music. WE just had a large nativity evening at our church where everyone brought any they owned to share with our community. There were hundreds and hundreds on display it was beautiful.

Oh this is so beautiful, Karen. I love the nativity scenes, and I think you're lucky puppies don't eat stuffed animals. We have lots of puff fluff around lately from a few stuffed "toys." The song, and the homey feeling was a real treat. You're a great host. Love you, Annette

Loved your beautiful nativities. You are right...there are never too many!!!!

Could you please post the name of the song and artist thta accompany your video?

Our Christian radio station did not play that at all during the holiday. I would love to pass it on to our church's praise band. Thanks!!!!

It is Nicole C. Mullen...Lamb of God. I didn't remember hearing this song until I saw it on the Billy Graham Christmas special this year. It's become one of my favorites.
