It was hard to pick just a few photos from my archives, but I finally whittled it down to these three.
This beautiful figurine was up at our church a few years ago. I remember asking someone where it came from, but I can't remember what the answer was. For me, it captures so much of the first of Christmas.
I took this at church the same year.
I know. I kind of changed gears in a hurry, didn't I? For many years the hubby has dressed up as Santa. He had some Santa-gigs for a few years, and when that dried up - well - I couldn't get him to stop growing that beard and donning the red suit. In this picture, I had to touch up his beard with white hair paint, but each year his beard has come in with more white. This year, I don't think it will need any help. I will share pictures after his big day.
Isn't the expression on his face priceless? Or something?

Very nice nativity sets but it is your husband who is the star of your photos. He looks just like the Coca Cola Season's Greetings Santa I remember while growing up.
I believe......♥
Beautiful manger scenes but I agree with Judith, your husband is the star, He makes a great Santa. The best are the ones with real beards, I think! (my husband could be one).
………..and did he eat ALL those cookies left on the many hearths he visited? He's a very authentic looking Santa, and jolly too!
Happy Christmas - Mary
You did switch gears but I love it. Love the pretty Nativity scenes and then he really does look like a very realistic jolly Santa! :) WOW!

What beautiful nativities and such different styles. And yes, your Santa looks very much like the real thing.

The manger scenes are so pretty! I looks like old Santa is going to enjoy that cookie.
Your Santa looks very jolly. What fun to dress up and be someone everyone likes! Great nativity sets, too.
He's the perfect Santa!
I have to agree with the others, your husband makes a wonderful Santa. I love the expression on his face.
