The Only Thing Missing..............

...........was the snow! We had a great Christmas Open House last weekend but the only thing missing was the snow! LOL And we got that yesterday.....just a week late! But it's probably for the best because the roads were getting pretty nasty.


Thank you Nathan for helping us put up the greenery, bows, lights and grapevine the night before the open house! We were out there until 9:00pm and the air was quite chilly! It's the prettiest that our shoppe front has ever looked!


I don't think that I've shown a picture of our newest Village Gift Shoppe Sign. This is our 3rd one since we opened 9 years ago. The weather sure does take a toll on them!


We hope this one lasts for many years to come! Thank You to John Metzger and the Indian Valley High School Industrial Arts/Woodworking class for doing such a great job! Hope and I painted and stained it this past spring and her hubby and her got it hung while I was in California. The last time that the PFATTies were in Ohio and got to come visit, our poor sign was in sad shape. The banner that my friend Sam made us features our old sign, but she used her photo editing skills and made it look so pretty! I remember her telling me that we needed a new sign after she took that picture! lol
