March already?
This year is flying by! Although
it seems as though quite a lot has happened – all of the grandchildren and
great-grandchildren we were expecting have all been born. Congratulations to all! I know everyone is
working on projects to dress our little ones.
Easter is just around the corner.
Thanks to Virginia for all her hard work on the tea last
month- the food was beautiful and tasty! … and the cake...BEAUTIFUL! Thanks to everyone for their support and to
those who brought food- great new recipes! We should have something like that
more often.
Spring is just around the corner. I love Daylight Savings time coming this
weekend- maybe I can get more accomplished with the extra hours of daylight.
Not that I am working outside, but at least I may not want to go directly to
bed when I get home. Vivian and I are
challenging each other to get more sewing accomplished.
If anyone has Easter outfits they have made – bring them
Tuesday so we can get some ideas!
See you Tuesday!

5th Annual
How-To Festival
Germantown Community
Library
Planning has begun for
the 2017 How-To Festival. As an alumni presenter, we have been
extended a special early invitation for the 2017 event. Just like last year,
we’ll be helping people to learn new skills in a friendly, free, hands-on
environment.
The community will be
invited to the library to rotate between tables and decide what they would like
to learn. To enhance the learner's experience, we are encouraged to make our
presentation as hands-on as possible.
Last year's fun!
