I'm so excited about the mailing list this year! How neat it is that there are so many wonderful friends here, even if we've never really 'met'!!! An emailing group list also sounds like a good idea for those not giving out snail mail addresses
Dixieland, what a neat tradition you have with the baby Jesus!! I was so giddy when I read that because my family does that too!! We have a little wooden manger, that over the course of the December month...if one of us in the family does a good deed, they put a piece of straw in the manger when nobody is looking. By the time Christmas eve comes around, the manger is full of hay and we place baby Jesus in there!
