MY THREE KINGS..........................


I have collected NUTCRACKERS for years....but my favorite ones are THESE THREE.....the THREE KINGS who visited JESUS IN THE MANGER....as the story goes...they are beautifully done


and I believe are true COLLECTOR PIECES ...... if you collect NUTCRACKERS.


each one replicates the intended KING and all are a little over THE TOP.


THEY ARE TRULY A BEAUTIFUL REPRESENTATION OF A BEAUTIFUL STORY TOLD....

Enjoy the Holiday dearest friends,

Jo

  2. These 3 kings are gorgeous and I like how they arrive at your manger scene. I collect nutcrackers too, and this year my kings will travel to the manger too.

  4. Beautiful, Jo! I can see why they are your favorites.

    My daughter was afraid of nutcrackers as a child and so I don't have any!

    I have a real one as well. It is a "Pilot" nutcracker. My son has been crazy for aviation since he was three so my tree has lots of planes and of course we had buy the Pilot Nutcracker.

  9. Your post reminds me... When I was younger, I loved the hymn/song "We Three Kings From Orient Are..." I never hear it anymore.

    Wondering if others remember that? :-)

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY......I'M GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY MONTH!!!

I turn 67 today.....and actually I feel better as the years accumulate.  Since I've gotten older I actually have decided that I will celebrate each day during the month of October...just being grateful for being healthy and alive.   I hope each one of you who follow this little blog of mine celebrate each day along with me.... Here are some of the things I have planned for my birthday month: 1.  Listing our current home the end of the first week in November.  We are pretty excited to be moving into a little smaller spot as it means less work and maintenance.  We just want to be able to live more and work less.  Although we still have not found our new spot.....we know it is out there.   2.  Taking a 15 day cruise on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Budapest.  We will visit 5 countries along the way.  One of the stops will be in the place I was born....Nuremberg, Germany.  My  family  left Germany right after the war...when I was quite young.  Memories are almos

PUTTING ON MY GYPSY SHOES......................

Bo Bunny Paper Collection Well.......the coach is packed...the laundry done in the condo....and we will be on our way tomorrow. I often do feel like a gypsy moving from one spot to another....and each year my gratitude grows as I am able to continue this lifestyle. I truly would love to "do up" my coach in Gypsy Style...but alas....not too practical as things probably would be flying all over as we traveled down the road.  (O: But.....a girl can dream.....can't she? ~~~ My suitcase is packed with memories To be opened further down the road When my caravan must be halted The bag waits to be opened Stories to be told and shared Like the gypsy's of so long ago But for now....the wheels keep turning And my case grows larger still Waiting for the day..I must be stopped   And my heart, to the brim, will be filled Hugs from me to you, Jo Gypsy photos:  Electric Gipsyland on Flickr

HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND A MERRY CHRISTMAS

This is a picture of our little tree this year.  Each year our trees seem to be smaller, a function of our getting older and just wanting to deal with less stuff.  I'm sure a few of you feel them same.  Although it does seem to be a little weird that we want to deal with fewer Christmas decorations and give each other MORE STUFF in the way of presents under the tree.   Ahhh...being human is such a quandary sometimes!                                          MERRY CHRISTMAS                                                          Jo
