I really really love that you have mixed in the crosses with the nativity. For, without the cross, the nativity would mean nothing.Shandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14337476167174497223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6758915940467026052.post-86234321061718939452011-12-19T20:36:59.009-05:002011-12-19T20:36:59.009-05:00Thank you for stopping by my blog today and for having this linky party!

I&#39;m not the only one that hot glues the nativity pieces to the stable?? We are awesome. :)melissa * 320 Sycamorehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11998834833645862095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6758915940467026052.post-35450451045017424542011-12-19T14:07:51.167-05:002011-12-19T14:07:51.167-05:00I too would love the nativity candles. Where did you find them?<br /><br />One side note: The wise men at the stable with the infant Jesus have always been out of place, as they came from far away and estimates are that it took them four months to two years to get to see the Christ child. Our pastor told us a fun way to decorate is to have them in another room to recognize their long journey. I haven&#39;t done it yet, but thought it would be nice to share.Cindynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6758915940467026052.post-88835406873594785092011-12-19T13:25:48.289-05:002011-12-19T13:25:48.289-05:00Richella! This is too funny, but we own &quot;The Crippled Lamb&quot; too (and we don&#39;t even have kids...another adult told us about it!) and EVERY YEAR, I cry when I read it. It is such a precious story, isn&#39;t it? Your nativity candles are just gorgeous. I&#39;ll have to keep an eye out for something similar - Did you buy them online? ~ Look forward to reading the links!

I&#39;d love to see lots of ideas! ;) I love your nativities especially the little wooden one. I too hot glued one of mine to cardboard one year but since have taken it off. Now the &quot;wobbly&quot; shepherd stands better though. ;) thanks for hosting! :)Ginahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18397352497202685897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6758915940467026052.post-60201255088062267242011-12-19T12:00:58.933-05:002011-12-19T12:00:58.933-05:00This is just such a wonderful idea for a party Richella! It seems even more meaningful for me today...my sweet grandmother passed away this morning and I rejoice in knowing she is with her/our Savior. The same Savior whose birth we are celebrating! And we celebrate that she will spend her first Christmas in heaven this year. :-)<br />Your heart for the Lord is so evident and you are a blessing to all of us.

I won a set last year in a giveaway and I gave to my mom to display at her house...they are a little too breakable for my house right now:) Thanks so much for hosting such a great linky!
