A Catrow Family Tradition

It wouldn’t be Christmas at the Catrow Estate without our beloved Nativity Set:

To your right, we have the typical manger setting with Mary, Joseph, Jesus, and the supporting livestock. The three wise men are currently on the other side of the room, but they will catch up with Jesus in a few days.

Oh, and that big green thing is the T-Rex. As you can see, he’s protecting the Baby Jesus from King Herod’s army.

Don’t tell us we don’t know us our Bible stories.

  2. People honking drives me nuts! Use your cell phone! I’ve made a habit of turning on lights and staring at them from a window or the porch. What’s funny is they must be up to no good as, when they see me, they tend to drive off before the person come out. Hmmmm…

  7. I would say that we try, but honestly, we just bring the absurdity out in each other. When together, it comes quite naturally.
