It takes my crew of 8 several days to finish the assembly. This year I am entering an international competition, and I think I have a good chance at winning or placing. Here's the best part. Our 3 yr. old grandson was finally old enough this year to have the honor of placing baby Jesus in his manger. It was tearful "Nana moment" to see the family tradition continue with the next generation.
Kim, I was watching "Home Alone" last evening and saw what I think might be a Nativity of the 70" Fontanini figures in the two church scenes, now that I know they do the lifesize figures. Those things are thousands of dollars each, $7,500 and up!!! Do you think that Nativity Kevin hides in and then later on Christmas Eve we see in that second church scene is all Fontanini's?
