The breakfast was a hit!

Sunday, December 10th, 2006

We had a great time with friends and family at the pancake breakfast last weekend. It was so much fun to see everyone and to catch up with some of you that we’ve missed!!

It was also an encouragement to have so many here with us to share this amazing journey. We feel blessed to have all of you in our lives.

Our first guests (The Zonnefelds) arrived at 7:30 A.M. and the last (The Hickox’s) left around noon! We served over 60 people and raised almost $1400.00 to help bring Faith home.

I’ve been dropping hints that a new project is brewing but up to now I couldn’t say much about it. Well all that has changed! Enter letterpop! the new place to create stunning newsletters for any purpose – Christmas newsletters, invitations, family newsletters, school newsletters, church newsletters, business newsletters, just-for-fun newsletters or whatever else you can dream up.

Here’s the scoop. We’ve started another company and website. Letterpop! – the result of several months of planning and development – is our first creation. The site is in beta which really only means that we’ll be doing a lot of improvements over the next couple of months.
Here’s where you come in. We need your help. We’re giving away a FREE annual “Premium” account to our beta users (a $25 dollar value). Consider it a Christmas gift from us to you for trying out letterpop! and writing to tell us how you like it and how we can improve.

I guess the last thing worth pointing out is that we plan to provide lots more templates in the coming days / weeks / months. Including a few more for the holidays. So check back often and let us know if you’ve got a template idea.

San Marcos Christmas Parade, originally uploaded by verners.

Levi’s pack, 650, won Grand prize (1st place) in the San Marcos Christmas parade! Had I’d known, I’d have shot a picture of the float! :)

This was Levi’s very first parade. When I saw him he was walking zig zags carrying the sign up in front. I took some pictures of the boys afterwards that I will share in the next couple of posts.
