At our Volunteer Gathering, Betty Miller, an Independent Heritage Makers Consultant, showed us her storybooks that she created in loving memory of her baby, Brian and in celebration of her son, Joey! We all wanted to make our own because they are so beautiful. These books look like REAL books because they are. Betty will be doing a workshop for us Sunday December 2nd, 2007 2pm-4pm at Marcia's home. Bring a laptop (if you have one). Please RSVP to Betty via email or phone by November 28th. Until then, her books and information will be here for you to see at our MS, candlelighting, Mother's Day Brunch, and groups.
