Hope you all had a Wonderful Holiday Season!! We were Closed Monday, Jan 2nd, but were able to start our New Traveling Story Hour on Wednesday, the 4th. Beth headed up to Crayon Corner Preschool and a Private Daycare, while I stayed at the Library to read stories to the Littles that braved the cold with their Moms. It was a fun day had by all! We plan on continuing with this “Divide and Conquer” Process throughout Jan and Feb to best suit the needs of our kiddos! We started out this week on Monday, Jan 9th with our Adult Crafting Club making Mason Jar Snow Globes. We have such Creative people in our group, as they used trees, deer, signs, Santas, etc. to create beautiful winter scenes in their Jars. They turned out so Adorable! Our Next Craft Day will be Monday, January 23rd. Next up will be Something Special for Valentine’s Day …. And Remember that New Crafters are ALWAYS Welcome!
