However, there is one Christmas decoration that I greatly desire to have: a Nativity set. And not just any nativity set, but this one:
The Willow Tree Nativity set, designed by Susan Lordi. I have given other Willow Tree figurines to my mom for various holidays, and I really really like them. This Nativity is just BEAUTIFUL, and I love it. The only problem is that the combined price for the entire set is about $290.00!!!!! Honestly.... That's ridiculous, I know. But I love it. Fortunately, you can buy it in pieces. The plan is to buy one section at a time and eventually get the whole set. (Even better would be to get other people to buy it for me!) I'm anticipating that it will take me 5 or 6 years.
Until then, though, I still really feel like I need a Nativity set for my home (wherever that may be in the next 5 or 6 years). So as an alternative to the complete Willow Tree set, last night I purchased this Nativity Set, much more affordable at $19.99:
Isn't it cute??? AND, if you push the star, Junior the Asparagus sings "O Little Town of Bethlehem." SO CUTE!!!
Well... That's all really. I just wanted to share my excitement with you all. Merry Christmas!

Oh! I've always wanted the Willow Tree Nativity, too!! I don't know what it is, but there's soemthing so beautiful in those simple figures. I like your Veggietales one! That's adorable. Junior was always my favorite.
Hey, since I won't see you before: Happy Christmas!!
Just happened here looking for a particular nativity set and noticed your post about the Willow Tree set. I located a store that is offering 40% off that set. Don't want to tempt you, but here's the link:
