Palletters paint: 10 ladies dancing...12 drummers drumming....
What a great way to put us into the spirit of the season as we painted new clothes, gave new hairdos, and freshened up the instruments of these colorful cutouts that were originally painted by the Palletteers (no one could remember how many years ago). These holiday characters will be on display during the St. George Botanical Garden's Christmas Spoken Here event next weekend. Even though we missed lunch and painted until 2 (OK, it wasn't really so bad because we all had had enough turkey the day before so that we could easily afford to miss lunch), and our backs hurt and our necks twinged afterwards, we loved the camaraderie of working together on a project, and felt really blessed by the sweet breezes provided by the Christmas winds that had arrived last weekend, so we enjoyed being able to do our part to help make the Garden's fundraiser weekend a success.
