Fun Pictures Wanted for the Newsletter
Please send pictures of your holiday activities to Agnes Forshey, Guild photographer, ([email protected]), and she will put together one or more collages for the newsletter. Here are some ideas of photos to send to Agnes: holiday decorations, holiday gifts, holiday cookies and desserts, pictures of children and/or pets all dressed up for the holidays, holiday travel pictures, and anything else you can think of that has the holiday theme. Holidays include Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, Hanukkah, Kawanzaa, and any others you can think of. The pictures don't need to be current, but they must be fun! |
