~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Our outdoor nativity wore out. You might remember seeing this Blue nativity before. We bought it from Walmart eight years ago. When it began showing signs of age, we went back and tried to buy another, but . . . no luck. For several years, we made do, but this year, it became evident that it had to be replaced.




This time, we went to Hobby Lobby and bought theses three pieces. I love the details. Our new nativity is lighted at night with a spotlight.




Mary kneeling before Christ.



Joseph looking on with awe.



Baby Jesus is showing Blue.



The Tampa area has a Grinch as items are being stolen from our front yards. 
I sure hope he stays away from our place!

Happy Blue Monday!

    That's a great nativity scene. You're more motivated than us, we hung a wreath on our door and put up our Christmas tree and that's all. Have a very Merry Christmas!

    Hello Sally dear, Busy day today and it is bedtime already. I didn't want to go to bed without visiting you.

    I LOVE your new manger scene from Holly Lobby. It is perfect for your yard. The face of Mary is lovely and the set is well done. Lucky you. Our shopping is so limited here in our small town.

    This evening we visited some people we know to see 70,000 lights in their yard. It was beautiful. This man is 85 years old and puts them up every year. Amazing.

    We wish you and yours a blessed Christmas and New Years.

    Love,
    Jeanne
