I can't believe I didn't know you collect nativities. I'm a bad sister. Can't wait for all the good times this year! It's coming so fast, horray! I love everything about Christmas too, it is "the most wonderful time of the year".
How funny that I remember your sleeping bags you got that year for Christmas. I think I threw up in one once.
I love the post. The same one went around work the other day. It's fun to learn different things about people that you probably wouldn't know.
