September 2011 - Operation Grandparents!

Image
This past month, the boys and I decided to pick an odd ball holiday and send their Grandparents a special little treat. We call it Operation Grandparents. This month we choice National Coffee Day which fell on Sept 29th. We decided to make cards and paint tiles to be used as tiles. I just love how they turned out. We have heard from all three sets of Grandparents, they all enjoyed to receive a package in the mail that was sent to tell them to have a great day. For October, we decided to celebrate National Chocolate day :) If you want to join us in Operation Grandparents, please feel free. Submit a comment with a link to your post and photos. Lets make sure Grandparents know how much the mean to the next upcoming generation.

Our new monthly project: Operation Grandparents!

My boys and I were talking the other day, and we decided that they are VERY lucky to know so many of their grand parents so deeply. I as you may know, remember am a craft (project) lover! SOOOO here is our new monthly project: Operation Grandparents. Each month we are going to pick a random daily observance (they will take turns picking) and I will come up with a card idea and a small project to do for them and send it to them via snail mail. Month #1 September 2011- we picked National Coffee Day, which is Celebrated on September 29. When we get the packages ready to mail I will post photos here. If you wish to follow along to root us on, please do so. If you are so inclined to do your own Operation Grandparents, please do and add your links to your own packages. Ready, set, GOOOOO......................
