I know, I know. It's pretty incredible that I've posted twice in the past 3 days. You are soooo lucky! We thought we should put up some pictures of how we've been celebrating Christmas this month. The first three are some of the decorations we put up. We didn't get a photo of our stockings that my mom made us, but I assure you they are hung up and they are adorable. Unfortunately, we had a minor camera disaster that stalled the photo taking, so this will have to do for now.
This is our very first nativity. It is also our first year to put it up. My parents got it for us for Christmas last year and we love it!
These are camels that Granny gave us. She got them in Bethlehem, which we think is sooooo awesome. I wish I could load the picture she gave us of her riding a camel!
This is our tree (and Bart's shoulder). This photo is actually a work of shear genius because I took it in our tiny office (without looking) by holding my arm out as far and as high as I could reach into the deepest corner of the office over piles of stuff that we are planning to bring with us for Christmas. Hard to describe, but Bart was very impressed that the tree even made it into the picture.
Oh, and we gave all of the ones on this table away. Or at least we tried to--some people weren't home. Darn!

Fortunately, we are leaving here in three days and can eat the ones my mom has made. Yippee!

Mmmmm..... Christmas cookies. I didn't see any on our porch. Maybe we weren't here when you came by.
Great decorations and a beautiful tree. One very cool thing is that we have camels almost exactly like those from Mindy's Grandma. We'll have to post or send you a picture.
Nice label. If you go to YouTube, you can watch the music video for that song, which makes it that much more entertaining. Also, the parade of Bethlehem camels continues! My grandparents have had a whole nativity set just like that for as long as I can remember, it's one of my favorites. Hope you guys have a Merry Christmas!
