be still


this has got to be my most favorite christmas decoration EVER! and boy is it a long time coming!! we love love love willow tree. we probably have 20+ of their collectables. when we saw their nativity, it is something we really wanted. however, it's quite expensive to just go out and buy. so we have added to the pieces since we have been married... and i think it is finally complete! there may be a new animal that we can add, but for the most part, we have it all. and i LOVE it! it sits on top of our mantel, above the tv. (can you see the wii remote sensor bar in the pic? ha!) the plaque above it is something that we always have hanging there. but it looks so much like it goes with the nativity! it's always a good remember, at christmas time and always, "be still, and know that i am god!"

I love this nativity!! I have the whole set also. It was a wedding present from my mom and dad the Christmas before we got married. It is so peaceful and makes a huge statment. I get teary every year when I set it up. LOVE IT girl!

I also have this Nativity set and it is my favorite Christmas decoration. It sits on our mantel too. As soon as we thought we were done buying, of course they added another piece and yet still another. I collect Willow Trees too and just love the meaning behind each one! They are each very special and near and dear to my heart!

I hope all of you had a sweet and merry Christmas! Your boys are just so adorable!
