Merry Christmas!!

I believe that the more stuff you can line up for the Adoration, the more in keeping with the spirit of the whole thing you are. It begins in childhood as no kid can resist adding extra figures to the creche scene. In my youth, we had not too many choices - all you had to work with was some army guys and the occaisional iron chicken - look how far modern manger decoration has come. Although I will take credit for filling up the coal car with tinsel and nestling the Baby Jesus in there for a few spins around on the train. But where is your cow?
