I know I do. It reminds me of my childhood town in Kentucky where about 500 people or less lived and we could play outside without fear all over the little town. You have arranged "your town" so artistically.

Whe...Your little village is adorable and inviting. When we live in a country that puts up Christmas displays in stores before Halloween, it's difficult for me to feel the outrage that you seem to about the war on Christmas. I just don't see a war on Christmas. Seems to me that as a nation we fully embrace Christmas while occasionally asking ourselves to pause a minute check ourselves to be fair to those who may not celebrate this particular holiday. We are all for trumpeting our founding on religious freedom as long as that religion is ours. My town has yet to put up a display to celebrate Ramadan but the nativity scene has been up on the courthouse square since the beginning of November. I love that nativity scene but I also welcome the discussion that sometimes arises about its appropriateness. To question religion, only strengthens its resolve; it's not necessarily a threat. Perhaps,it's time to put away the rhetoric that inflames and focus on the peace trumpeted by the baby who lay in the manger.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12196717975204396575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-43740783726166894982012-12-07T07:10:06.728-07:002012-12-07T07:10:06.728-07:00Awe, I love it Ann.

I don't think the P.C. and Thought Police have taken over our internet...yet.<br /><br />This is a PERFECT post! Your town is charming and so sweet, Ann. It reminds me of "It's a Wonderful Life." Thank you for your words that really speak to me this Christmas season.<br /><br />I'm so sorry I haven't visited lately. Well, actually I've visited; I just haven't left comments like I should. Always in a rush, which is not the reason I began blogging. My Dickens Village is up this year, too. I'd love for you to stop by if you have a chance. I know you and I both loved visiting England. :)<br /><br />I'll definitely be back to look at this peaceful scene again in the coming days. Merry Christmas, Ann.<br /><br />XO,<br /><br />DeniseDenisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01235440820949449634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-49988768717859931612012-12-07T05:19:22.524-07:002012-12-07T05:19:22.524-07:00Hello there, I hopped over from Pom Pom's blog...Hello there, I hopped over from Pom Pom's blog.
