On the Sixth Day of Christmas wooden roots seem to fit for a rustic and earthy stable for the baby Jesus in these Nativity scenes.

On the Fifth Day of Christmas two Travelors passed my way. A mother, Mary her husband Joseph and a donkey to lead the way. then a star appeared above the heavens far that shown so bright and lit the way for shepards and wise men to follow. The Angels told the tell and sang from the heavens rejoicing the birth of our Lord and Savior, JESUS CHRIST!

On the 4th Day of Christmas what do you think you might find? scroll below and to guess what this might be and were it might be from.....

On the fourth day of Christmas the snow came falling all around the middle age German Town of Rothenbur ob der Tauber

Take a train to the heart of Germany's Romantic Bavarian Road to a town that celebrates Christmas year round.  Rothenburg ob Der Tauber.  The town square rings of music on the hour and the shops are full of winter treats and delights.  you can even try your own schneeballen or snowballs.  Sweet round pastries deep fried in a cast iron cylinder which creates the schneeballen shape.

On the Third day of Christmas music by the Tabernacle Choir and a crazy organist are just pretty great!

I Saw Three Ships Come Sailing In

One of my favorite Christmas' was the six months before I turned 8 years old.  We drove to California, in a brown sation wagon just like ours, only it ran better.  We were picking up Frankie from his mission, and this was my first trip.  Disney Land was a big draw on Christmas Day, although rumor has it I didn't want to go.. I think it was really that I didn't want to go in the pink sweats I was made to wear in the City of Sun!  It wasn't cold and I had to wear sweats to Disney Land... putting that aside one evening we came to the Anaheim Harbor, this was my first time seeing a harbor.  And as I saw the ships come sailing in my mom talked about the Christmas song "I Saw Three Ships."  That memory has stayed with me ever since.
