I apologize that I have been sooooooo slow about updating the pictures lately!!!!! We started on a new project, A Christmas CD featuring original & classic Christmas carols.

It has been on my mind all year that we should do a Christmas CD this year, but we haven't had the time.  We started in August but it doesn't look like we will get it done this year. It looks like it will be a 2009 Christmas CD
God bless,
Paul
