Decorations for Advent began with a simple, empty grotto. Each Sunday of Advent we added a little more to the scene in anticipation of our Lord's Nativity.

The photo at left is the Second Sunday of Advent. For the Third and Fourth Sundays of Advent, we added animals and a few shepherds.

Finally the longing and waiting is over! On Christmas Vigil we added the Holy Family to complete our creche.

The photo at left was taken on the feast of the Epiphany when we added the three wise men, and a camel.
