Happy Thanksgiving! Most of you will spend more time near the oven than the computer today but I still wanted to send out this newsletter. I hope your holiday is wonderful. I did something this year I've never done before...used paper plates, cups and plasticware. Total clean up time after dinner? Twenty-two minutes! I think I may have found a new holiday tradition. :)

In this newsletter I have a new article for you in time for Christmas gift ordering. I also have a wonderful announcement from Yari, of Theme Cuties.

Just in time for the holiday shopping season, check out Hatch Patch Creation's Family Home Evening packets. This is a fun interview with Jill Revelli, one of the co-creators of this growing business. She shares the story of Hatch Patch. It's the newest article at LDS Families.

Yari, of Theme Cuties, just contacted me with some wonderful news. She will be holding a "Day After Thanksgiving Sale" on Friday, November 23. All orders placed that day will be 50% off! That's a wonderful opporuntity for you to order holiday gift tags, scrapbooking graphics, letterhead for holiday letters and so much more. If you want to access her site or learn more about her, just click on this link "Interview with 'Yari', Creator of Theme Cuties.'
