Nativity Sets

When the girls were small, I went on the look out for a Nativity set that they could touch and play with.  Princess Girly Girl would gather all her Little people and they would hang out on the table with set.  This year I was saddened to realize the Nativity set was all by itself.  But there were many times I would find her playing away and I was so glad I had this set.



Then we went looking for a grown up set and I love the Willow Tree collection so for the past few years we added to this collection.



This year, Dh found a new set.  Again by Willow Tree and I am so excited to have it!  I look forward to adding more pieces in the years to come.  I love that he loves these as much as I do and I love that I now have two, so when it is time one set can go to each girl.  




I do think Princess Girly Girl will inherit the Little People one, there is no question about that one.  

Remembering the real reason for this season that we have is so important.  Remembering to service those that need to be loved.  To be giving as He was giving.  To take time to remember all that the Savior has done for us.  

So in the rush of life, don't forget what is really important.
