I recycle

(Sorry out for a few days with a cold....but I am back now!)

Here is how the Davis Graveyard recycles Halloween decorations for the Christmas holiday. :D

Several years ago when we were looking for an idea for our Christmas card, we came up with this idea to take one of the pointing mud men and create an Ebenezer Scrooge tombstone. Inspired by A Christmas Carol.

You see, any holiday story with ghosts in it is perfect for us for Christmas : )

This piece is on the very busy side of the house, so the font being large is deliberate so that those flying by at 35 miles an hour (even though it is supposed to be 25) can read it, and hopefully after a few passes by, they get the idea.

Not nearly as popular as Calvin and Hobbs...but how can anything compete with that kind of genius :D

Happy Holidays!
