Santa's Helper Today

Today we delivered toys to Children's Memorial Hospital. Each year our family collects all our loose change in a special "change jar". In December the money gets counted and Zach gets to shop for toys. These toys are then delivered to Children's Memorial. There are kids that are in the hospital that get very little if anything for Christmas. It's also a way for Zach to select fun toys to give away.

This year we also delivered handmade greeting cards. These cards were made by the Meet Up Group from Windy City Scrapbooking. I hope this is a tradition we can continue for future years.

I hope everyone is able to enjoy the Holiday Season and not get too stressed out (like that is going to happen). I'll post some new cards soon. Just had a class yesterday and we made some fun cards.

Holiday Card Swap Coming Up

Hi Everyone,

Here's a great way to get your holiday cards done. There's going to be a Holiday Card Swap. The rules are simple: Make 6 cards (w/envelopes) and get five different cards back. If you would like to be part of muliple groups you can make 12 cards and get 10 cards back and so on. It is really up to you. The day of the swap we will randomly draw groups of 6 and the swap fun can begin.

It's a lot of fun to see what others create. You don't have to be attend to be part of the swap - but your cards need to be received by December 1st.
