One year I realized I had very little "Christ" on my CHRISTmas tree.
So, I decided each year I would add a new Christ ornament.
This carved gourd opens to a BEAUTIFUL Peru colored, paper mache'd? people, with a straw roof nativity. Its says its made in Peru, I hope it really is (from Ebay).
The red and white ornament is very old and fragile, I love the lights shining on the red background (from Ebay). The ornament on the right (Silent Night) is a Hallmark ornament from last year, it is printed on both sides.
My mom had this style of ornaments when I was growing up.
Wonderful EBAY made it possible to replace hers and obtain this retro nativity.
Left is a heavy new one from our Panhandle, TX girl trip this year, the plastic on is from a 2003 girl trip (we always stop at Hobby Lobby and Walmart), the wood nativity is made from Holy Land olive tree and a gift from my mom.
Jesus is MY reason for the season!
Merry CHRISTmas to you all:)

Love the nativity ornaments, especially. I haven't even drug my tree out; I gotta get it in gear!
These are gorgeous! Nativity scenes are a wonderful thing. My favorite is the wooden Nativity.
