What nativity sets do you have up at your house this year? I'm sure none of ours are as artistic as the one of the Vatican thread, but lets see what you have.
In our house this year, we went a little simpler. We normally have several sets, but this year just 2.
One is, well, I'm not sure it even qualifies.
Yes, it has Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, but looks more like the flight to Egypt than the nativity.
The other is my youngest's Little People nativity set.
What I really like about hers is that while most Nativity sets rightly have Christ as the center, they are also arranged so that the viewer can see the characters, while hers has the Christ child as the center for everyone and noone is looking at the viewer, but only at the Christ.
Outside, I do have a nativity set, and this one is legit.
I few years ago, I didn't like that we just had lights, so I got a small metal nativity that sat in the flower bed. Didn't like that it was hard to see and didn't stand out, so got the larger one. Our neighborhood went from 0 nativities outside to now at least 4. Being Presbyterian though, don't let the hyper-Calvinists know. We'll be getting hate mail for violating the 2nd commandment.
What do yall have?
