December 2004
- December 13th - 6:30PM to 9:30PM Chapter Meeting and Christmas Party at Susan Wards house.
We hope everyone had a Wonderful Thanksgiving! Despite having to work, we had a very nice holiday with our families, including our many critters. At our house, the animals get special treats on the holidays too in appreciation for the parts they play in our lives as family members. We make a special effort to be sure the kitties get some tuna, the dogs get extra bones and leftovers to share, and the horses get apples and carrots as treats. We are truly thankful for all that we have.
Christmas is not too far away and the first thing on our minds as we write this months newsletter. We have enclosed an invitation to this years Christmas Party! We would love to see everyone there!
