This is a Sneak Peek at the decorations I did at the Church for this years Breakfast with Santa. There is A LOT more to see but I won't have pictures of the rest of it until tomorrow. So for now I hope you like these. If you think this is good wait until you see the rest.
My friend Stacy drew the people and the animals and I painted them. We were going for a simple, serious look in the hall with the manger scene. The rest of the room is fun and flashy. We did not feel like it was appropriate to glitter Baby Jesus. We also decided to leave the animals faceless. 
My mom helped me this year with some of the painting. She helped me with the straw they are standing on and she painted the horse. She did a really great job on the horse. 
My history with this goes back to 2008. I was newly elected to the children's ministry Preschool committee at the church last year. And during one of the meetings they mentioned Breakfast with Santa needed to be decorated. So I volunteered. I was told I had no budget and that I would have to use what the church had. So that is what I did and they loved it so much they told me I was in charge of it again this year. Only this year I was given a great budget. But I still did a lot of what I did last year to save time. But I also added a lot of new things too. This manger scene is new for this year. I have been working on a lot of this stuff since October and I have had a lot of great help. Anyway it takes many, many hours to do it all but I really do enjoy just about every minute of it!
