Nativity #2

Part of the reason I posted about the first nativity is because Justin gave me another nativity for Christmas this year.  Justin was in Ghana for almost the whole month of September setting up some pilot fish ponds for his business.  His dad asked him to bring home a nativity set for a friend.  Justin showed me the set before he gave it to his dad.  It was amazing!  It was made out of wire and banana leaves.  Justin was upset that he didn't bring one home for us, but what could he do?


Justin is amazing.  He contacted some friends over in Ghana, and had them find and buy the nativity set for him.  He had a Ghanaian BYU student bring it to the states when she came back from Christmas break.  Justin is so thoughtful and amazing!  He gives the best gifts.  I can't wait to display it next year!

Joseph, Mary and Jesus (and a wandering sheep)

 The three wise men

 The shepherd and his two sheep

Angels

They all store inside the manger.  Also, let's not forget the star on the roof!
