WITH MUCH GRATITUDE!




After three months of hard work and many volunteering hands our Kris Kringle Market was a success. Many came to join in the festivities.The North Pole was buzzing with excitement and Santa and Mrs Claus were very pleased with the children's behavior this year.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of the volunteering hours, the hundreds of dollars donated for the Lemont Food Pantry and all of the gifts donated for our giving tree. We truly enjoyed putting it together and are hoping to improve it for 2010. Who knows, maybe next year we dream bigger and look a little more like this.

KNITS, KNITS, AND MORE KNITS

Knits for winter are a must, but I am tired of the same ol' scarf as a decorative outerwear accent. We have options ladies!!!




I am in LOVE with these head warmers created by thisolthing and leg spats crafted by the talented miss Natalee. Something new, colorful and creative to get us through these cold winter months.
