For this year, I am again displaying the older, vintage nativity pieces. The newer sets stayed in the boxes. I'm sure they will find a place again another time. But for this year I longed for the old that brings back so many memories.
If you are an old friend you know that some of the pieces were given to me over 40 years ago by a much loved family member. And this took me on a search for some replacement pieces. last year. Along the way, I found the nativity dog, or actually 3 of them. Last year only the little guy to the left was added to the nativity, of course because he kind of reminded me of Cody Puppy a little bit.
My intentions were to sell my duplicate items. However, when got all the pieces out, having all three pups reminded me of my little family of three, so all three dogs made it to the nativity this year.
Donna- I'm sure there was a least a dog or two in Bethlehem! xxooDiana
ReplyDeleteThat looks wonderful, Donna! What a great set!
ReplyDeleteHi Donna!
ReplyDeleteIt remindsme of the one we had when I was a child. I wonder what my mother did with it? I'll have to ask. It looks so nice and the dogs seem natural...after all dogs can be used to help with sheep herding! Hope you have a wonderful Christmas! Liz
