Default The three Tenors
Well tomorrow is the candlelight tour in Havre De Grace Md. Anna and I have been working for a couple of months to get ready. The truck is packed and we are finally able to get to bed before midnight tonight. Every time I thought we thoght we was caught up more orders came in.
We had Anna's Gourds on the table and they looked like the three tenors and a choir of snowmen. The apple baskets on the harvest santas really took more time than we thought. I was tired of them after the third one but still had a dozen to go. Also finished the santa for 2008 in time for the tour.
We're tired but glad we are done this batch. Now to get busy on the ten that I need to for the lumber yard. He has a standing order every year and he pays me in wood.
Goody & Anna

Man, y'all have been busy! Everything looks wonderful, too. I'm amazed at all the Santas! The quality of carving and painting on each and every one of them is excellent. The folks that come to the candlelight tour are sure in for a treat!!

Those are looking good and glad that you found a minute for showing them to us. Maybe you'll get the rest that you deserve sometime next year!
