I have the BEST friends!!

My friend surprised me with this sweet little Nativity the other day.  Since we are suppose to be moving this summer, obviously she could not wait until Christmas.  It was unexpected, and one of the most thoughtful gifts I have ever received.  Something that her family made for me that they knew I would like.  and I LOVE it!! Did I mention they made it with shells and coral found on the beaches here?  I know, even cooler!

I mean, just LOOK at this! I know, it takes a minute to recognize what it is.

But here you have Mary and Joseph and the baby in the manger.  So clever!

And the little shepherd with his sheep.

A better view of the sheep.  The adorable details are the best!

Here are the three wise men, with their gifts.  So cute!

And one of my favorite little details is this snail...er... camel behind the wise men.

I just think this is the cutest and sweetest thing ever and I love it so much!  I can't wait till I can put it out at Christmas.
