This weekend we found more bargains, of course. At one stand, they started a section where they have ANY 3 items for $1.00!! i LOVE that section and was sooo surprised this time to see some REAL treasures lol here are 3 i picked up:
it's a string of arch lights, table runner (no snags or holes, yay!!) & that AWESOME MUSICAL Santa that stands about a foot tall! Cool, huh? i LOVE that place!
We also went to a thrift store where i found this unusual piece. Hence, today's title
now i am not sure how this makes you feel, but when i picked it up, DH said yea i saw that and thought how wierd it was, i asked why, his reply was since it was Jesus' birth, Santa would not yet exist. hmmm, well, i thought a bit different, the way i see it is, the minute Jesus was born, is the minute Santa began to exist, IN OUR HEARTS!
i would LOVE to know how this makes you feel! Do you like it? Does it upset you? Please let me know, especially in today's age with society talking of taking Jesus out of Christmas.
Thank you so very much for your visit and i hope you have a PERFECT day :D hugs!

Hi there - OMG your treasure finds are wonderful. I love those lights and your musical Santa is great(the runner looks really in great shape too!) I too thought that was a bit weird, after thinking about it too...Doesnt bother me, but I'm with your Dh, but then I hear what you are saying too. Isnt it awful what they are trying to do now-a days, Unbelievable, its just not right!
Oops, there I go again. Hope you dont overdo it and have a great week before Christmas - Hugs~
Awesome finds Shirley!!!!!
I can see both points of view but see it as Santa's first child he ever visited and being thankful for the birth of Christ!
I finally updated my blog last evening & uploaded my Christmas tree photo's & Foxy!!!!!
HUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have enjoyed your blog rantings. I love the figurine. I think Santa came alive this Holy Night.
I have always wondered about that song. This clears it up. Thanks!
