I own a Creche
I do. The only reason I bought it/display it is because it is the whole creche scene depicted as if a Native American woman gave birth to the One True Lord.
First time I ever saw Baby Jesus as a Native American, complete with Indian blanket, beaded headband and entire North American zoo about him. I like it.
I also have Christmas lights up, a tree decorated in Christmas candy and lots of fairy lights strung up in the house.
Plus, my Chanukkah bear.
I like this time of year.
