Josephine Walker's house is decked out with Christmas decorations, but the Fort Walton Beach woman says she no longer feels like celebrating the holidays. For the second time in three years, someone has stolen Walker's nativity scene.

"They took my Jesus, Mary and Joseph and the Three Wisemen," says Walker. "It's a lot of trouble putting up the scene and it costs a lot of money, but it's worth it. But it's not worth someone coming in my yard and stealing from me while I'm sleeping."

Walker says she'll no longer put up holiday decorations.

"If I find out who did this, they'll get what's coming to them," says Walker. "When I find out who did this, I'm going to press trespassing and theft charges."

Walker's neighbors have offered to replace the stolen figures...in fact, a woman from Destin dropped off new figures earlier this week.

"I'm thankful for that, but I don't want them replaced. What I want is my property back."
