By the way we found a total of 34 nativities in our search on one evening alone. Thanks for the wonderful idea and the great time with my family.Neenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04169665137526513607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467184516054189174.post-47993394083017562192007-12-21T07:38:00.000-05:002007-12-21T07:38:00.000-05:00Hi again, I told my kids about this and they thoug...Hi again, <BR/>I told my kids about this and they thought it was a cool idea. We decided to look around here and see what the nativity offerings in our neighborhood/community were like. <BR/>We were truly shocked to find (as we drove through our neighborhood, across three towns to get to school/church/activities) only FIVE nativities--and only ONE was in front of a home, the other four were in front of churches. Wow. I would never have even noticed that if you hadn't mentioned it. Our search continues.<BR/><BR/>God Bless,<BR/>JaneJane (a.k.a. patjrsmom)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04315726536529466575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467184516054189174.post-64845550887275755882007-12-20T21:45:00.000-05:002007-12-20T21:45:00.000-05:00Great Idea Allison!

That someday, with a good sale, we could get a really elaborate manger scene.<BR/><BR/>Coincedently, we *just* returned from "recess" rollerblading around the neighborhood putting Christmas cards in mailboxes and doing the clandestine count for how many Nativity scenes there are. Oh, there are soooo many lights...and countless Frosty the snowmans. It must be Frosty's birthday. In what must be a predominantly Christiam neighborhood, considering 90% or more of the house have lights and decorations, among 214 homes only 5 had the Navitity outside.<BR/><BR/>I pray there are more inside.....Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05423794317423373245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467184516054189174.post-58462342006769183572007-12-19T13:37:00.000-05:002007-12-19T13:37:00.000-05:00This is a great idea!

I have my heart set on a large-sized Fontannini set (like our in-house one) that we could build a "real" wooden stable around and shine a spotlight on. But they're so expensive! Maybe in the after-Christmas sales? <BR/><BR/>God Bless,<BR/>JaneJane (a.k.a. patjrsmom)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04315726536529466575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467184516054189174.post-36338587184784132872007-12-19T00:19:00.000-05:002007-12-19T00:19:00.000-05:00What a wonderful idea and a great lesson for your ...What a wonderful idea and a great lesson for your children.<BR/><BR/>There are a few nativity one's here but they are getting more rare as folks concentrate on Santa.<BR/><BR/>Christmas is about Jesus not 'santa'.<BR/><BR/>Peace, JOY & Merry Christmas:)<BR/><BR/>MarieMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17337722432805966125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8467184516054189174.post-91820708228050219422007-12-18T19:36:00.000-05:002007-12-18T19:36:00.000-05:00That is a great idea.
