In Italy (actually I don't know if in the whole Europe, I know irt exists in Spain too) there's the tradition to make (besides the Christmas tree) a little nativity scene, with a wooden hut or a cave and inside small carachters made of plastic or ceramic of Jesus baby, Madonna (Virgin Mary not Ciccone!) and Saint Joseph,the ox, the burro (a donkey that is) the comet star, shepherds and all that. Cherie have you ever happened to carve something like that on wood for Christmas? Just curiosity [img]smile.gif[/img]

Have a great weekend everybody
