It Really Is Beginning To Look Like Christmas

Here is the 2009 version of our Christmas tree. Note that it needs to stand on a box to be seen - I like that in a tree.
And here are a few participants in the parade of nativity scenes that is now taking place around our house, making it a real joy to look at.

Christmas Is For Christ

This past week was the annual Creche Festival in the Yuba City Stake. This year was even better than ever as Erin Henry and Lindsey Warren (who did Peter & Leigh-Ann's wedding photos) really did a great job with the setting.
The silhouette cutouts against the screens with lights behind them were very effective in providing the proper setting.
Here is the contribution from our family - note the newest addition from Nashville, IN.
This is a nativity scene crocheted by Sabrina's grandmother Remund.
The rest of these were just a few of the ones that caught my eye. If you want to see more, let me know & I'll post some of the others.
This is a family in Florida that takes an annual photo of their children so it grows as their family does. I thought that was a pretty cool idea.
I really like the plates, and this was one of the more colorful.
