It is rather nice to see a little nativity scene on a lawn. One gets tired of too many Santas and Snowmen.

The nativity scene is interesting. Some of them tend to get quite ornate.

What?????
Joseph, Mary and the kid in swaddling clothes. That's it? Come on Ocala.
No cows, horses, wise men????
Heck you and I could fill those roles. And don't go there I will not 'play' the horse... either end.

I like that last shot. They look like they really enjoy the holidays.

2 Christmas trees, for more gifts

Halcyon said...

You certainly have a lot of variety! I think the trees are my favourite.

Kay said...

Is it too irreverent to say that Mary looks shocked?

Karl said...

One festivity and three completely different approaches and interpretations... interesting and nice !

Sharon said...

That is quite a variety! I think that tree in front in the first photo is a bit over the top.

Gauzy garlands seem to be very much the fashion this year!

Anonymous said...

Despite all that glorious warm sunshine it still looks very festive!

Judy said...

I think that tree is a bit over dressed. But I do like that palm tree in the last photo. It has a nice shape.

VP said...

A nice set of pictures, my favorite scene is the first one!

Pat said...

Beautifully wrapped tree. Mary, Joseph, and Baby Jesus appear a bit lonely...maybe the others hadn't gotten there yet.

Merry Christmas to you both, however you express it!

Lowell, are you ok? You're going all Christmassy!!!! :-)

I think that JMJ look a bit isolated on the lawn. I would move them back towards the plants - maybe add some sheep! ;-))

Kate said...

For those of us who live in the land of ice and snow, the nativity scene on grass looks almost comical. Perhaps that's closer to the scene in Bethlehem tho.

Me? Snarky? :-))

Hello again, Lowell! These Christmas trees look elegant like ladies wearing red and gold lame shawl. The ornaments in the third image is fun to see.
