There’s a couple of bales for you over in the corner.

Merry Christmas everybody!

Merry Christmas!

Isn´t the little drummer boy from something else?

You let one move in and the next thing they are taking over.

Over the years, I thought to myself , what would the animals would say if they saw the baby Jesus laying in their manger. And now 31 years later, I have the answer.

Whoops, they are at the wrong stable. Notice the star is over the house thats way down the street. This kid must be Brian.Either way, the cow food has been soiled.

he’s talking to ewe! the pig isn’t kosher. They are all in need of manger anagement

I imagine Joseph and Mary were kind enough to feed the animals in a corner of the stable. Merry Christmas everyone!

Waiter, there’s a baby in my hay!

Well, in case this is video day, here is one of my family on all fours.

Tue Elung-Jensen, If your question is serious, the drummer boy does fit there, although he is a legend made-up in a pop song about a kid who visits baby Jesus and plays his drum since he doesn’t have any other present. As for me, you can skip the present if all you have is a kid banging a drum.

NightGaunt49, Jesus didn’t have to be two years old, he could’ve been 6 months to 2 years old. Herod just wanted to make sure he murdered Jesus. He failed. How old Jesus was depends on two factors, 1st, how far the magi lived from Bethlehem. 2nd, how fast the caravam traveled.

pig? in Bethlehem in Israel? that is the biggest stretch that any ‘cartoonist’ could ever come up with – little drummer boy though a story was at least set in the time era – but a pig?

Jews couldn’t eat pork, so there would be no pig in the barn.
