Christmas in July?

Well obviously these pictures are a little old.  Back in the beginning of December our church put on a Nativity.  They elaborately decorated our Stake Center, had musicians from all over the area come and perform, had a live nativity...and probably many other things that I am forgetting at the moment.  The main event is the collection of nativities from all over the world and many different types....it was really cool.  Phill was the photographer at the event.  Thought you might enjoy a Christmas in July.  Merry Christmas!

Also, remember you can click on the pictures to enlarge for more detail.  Enjoy!

Some of the many nativities...





Loved the beautiful decorations and remember that they always had Christmas musical numbers going in the background from many different denominations.  It was so beautiful!





Some of the nativities with windmills are from Holland and they were carved out of wood.  These were some of my favorites.





They also had related pieces of artwork on display as well, notice the paintings and sculptures.  We took Alex but had him restrained the entire time.  Oh the damage he could have done!





Some more "playful" nativities.





Live Nativity



If only I had this in time for Christmas cards...don't be surprised to find this in your mailbox this year.




Merry Christmas!
