Christmas Mantel 2012 and The Nativity

Last night my kids sports activities were cancelled unexpectedly, so we found ourselves free for an entire evening.  We used our time well and started to decorate for Christmas.  The tree will have to wait for the weekend, but we decorated the mantel and took out some other decorations including the nativity.  I'll be sharing more of our Christmas decor over the coming days. 

It's tough to get a good shot of it with the lights out.


Here is our nativity.  My husband bought this for me as a gift when we first were married.
It's still one of my favorite things.

It's beginning to look and feel like Christmas now.

How about you - have you started decorating for the holidays yet?

  4. Such a sweet nativity, Judy! I have a small one that is similar to that collection {why can't I think of the name now!} that we got when we were first married. I only had to buy the stable piece separate. I know the difficulty of taking pictures in the dark to get the lights. It always looks so pretty in person and you want to capture that.

  8. I love nativity scenes, and yours is very nostalgic of that time.

    I haven't started decorating yet, but soon!
