I sat aside a few of this pack of cards I got for Christmas to put in a hot air balloon themed box I'm working on and found these dice I'd bought for something but didn't need. I'll probably print off Yahtzee scores sheets to include with them, and of course they can play any dice game they know with them, or make one up. The neat thing about both these items is that I have stories to tell about the theme and game and my extended family, so it'll make the notes I include in those boxes more personal and give a better connection to the recipient.
My mom & sister crocheted 3 Aunt Ida Hats from Joy With Purpose.

ReplyDeletePraying that your grandmother feels better soon--I still have such wonderful memories of my own grandmother who was, I am convinced, one of the sweetest souls ever to live on earth.
