I probably shouldn’t have spent the money, but after stewing over my nativity scene situation, I decided to just do something about it.

Isn’t it pretty?

This nativity is just what I was looking for…it feels more reverent, it’s made of resin, so it’s fairly sturdy, (important in a house full of children!), and it even has a fairly unique look, thanks to the color palette and the beautiful detail. The best part? It was 30% off at the CPH bookstore. I’m guessing I could have gotten it for even cheaper after Christmas, but I really wanted to jump on it now so that it would be out for Christmas Eve. Like my other set, it strangely has no shepherds, which I really don’t get, but I can deal with it.

I’m so relieved that our house has a nativity scene for Christmas!
