Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents and Cousins mean a lot to me. It is hard when many of them live out of the state to keep a connection between the families. I have found that having pictures displayed in my daughter’s bedrooms on their on memory boards helps a great deal. We update the pictures as we […]
Ever since I saw this craft done on the Martha Show with old Gloves and Socks I have been itchin’ to do it. I didn’t have any gloves I wanted to cut up and get rid of, but while at Walmart I got such a steal. I asked one of the employees where their gloves […]
