Inspired by a post by my good friend @silversaver888 called "The Reason for the Season," I'm sharing images of the nativity scenes that decorate our home every Christmas.
This first nativity, featuring a cardboard stable, is the nativity that decorated my family's home when I was a child.
The next few images are of the "main" nativity that we decorate with. The stable was handmade by my father many years ago and has survived many moves.
The main figures are Hummels and Goebels...
...but, of course, we had to augment the scene with Analees.
Besides the Analee dolls on our main nativity, we have an Analee nativity scene as well:
Lastly, we also decorate outside our house with a large nativity. One of these years, I'm going to have to make a wooden stable for these figures...
I'm not sure if there were deer in Bethlehem, but we're in Texas ya'll:
Well, that's a look at how we keep Christ in Christmas, and celebrate the real reason for the season! Have a Merry Christmas, ya'll, from our house to yours!

Very nice decorations, mostly hand made with loving attention! Amazing antique pieces! The angels look very cute!
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look. I hope you had a happy Christmas and wish you all the best in the coming new year!
Thank you! Your post reminded me of my school years at catholic school. We had to compete on creating the best nativity model during Christmas! It was very serious competition and we all put so much effort into our presentation. Good old days!

Lovely Nativity sets. Having something from childhood and made with love makes them extra special when brought out each year. Many happy and healthy Merry Christmases to you and your family.

Thanks JNET! We both wish you a peaceful and happy Christmas, and all the best in the new year.
Thank you @qurator and @ackhoo. I really appreciate the support!
You're most welcome! :)
Some things should be kept through the ages... :)
Merry Christmas to you & yours too, @kunschj!
Thanks @ackhoo! Merry Christmas to you and yours.
The nativity in your first photo is the very same one my parents had when I was growing up. Your photo brings back many fond memories.
I still have the figures, although they are well worn. The stable perished many years ago.
Thanks for taking a look. I’m glad I was able to bring back some happy memories. This stable is in remarkably good shape. The figures are glued in place now, but they weren’t when I was a child. I hope you have a very merry Christmas!
What wonderful Christmas Nativity Scenes you have @kunschi!
I just added one in the living area.
It's a good idea to have one outside, and something to think about!
I have to find the appropriate statues. I like yours very much!
Thank you for the inspiration, my good friend!
Here's wishing you all the peace, joy, and loving of family and friends
this Christmas Season and all seasons!
Merry Christmas!
