For what? Christmas! I know "it is not for another 15 weeks"  well, while at the candle shop the other day I opened a flask of "Home for the Holidays" and just had to make a few candles ( how about 100). I took them down to the grotto and most of them sold that day. 

Along that same line of "getting ready" I was thinking of a few song I could sing this year for all  the Christmas get to gathers. last year I sang the Waxford carol.  and the year before that, God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.  I am sure God will send something my way this year.  I will, however record the Waxford coral and share it with you later. 

The waxford Carol

Here are a few photos from my yahoo Flicker page!

  After a little cleaning, the candle shop is open and running again. did I say clean, it was clean at one time. today we only poured 130 candles: Hot apple pie and Fall Harvest and a few advent candles. here is a current shot of the candle shop and a few candles made to day!

God's blessing!

I did not skip fall, I just have not had time to take photos of the fall candles yet

The color is off a little a little to much photo shop!
