Have A Great Weekend & Cards For Heroes
Anna wishes you and your family a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!
Two things to note:
(1) Cards For Heroes is hosting a MEMORIAL DAY BLOGHOP this Saturday May 24th. Bloggers from all over the US and abroad will be posting a card and sharing why THEY participate in honoring our nation's heroes. And everyone else gets inspired! This bloghop will be helping us to get the word out to even more crafters and financial donors-so we can get more cards out to our heroes! We're getting more and more requests all the time and need to step up our game, and this is one really fun way to share what we're doing...letting YOU share! Hop through blogs, and get inspired to make more cards or donate funds toward our work! Tell your friends about it, even if they're not cardmakers...it'll do everyone's patriotic heart good to hear about so many Americans wanting to help our military. Visit bloghop central here.
Cards for Heroes mission is to support our nation's armed forces by sending blank greeting cards to
write home on, as well as cards of gratitude to encourage them
throughout their deployment. We are an all-volunteer group of
crafters. To date we have sent over 140,000 cards to our heroes serving
in the Middle East. You can find more information on making + sending cards here.

Hi Ali,
Just a little note to say we will take our three children to the D-day landing in Normandy in the hope of finding a veteran to chat to. It should be an experience and a half. We will be on one of the british beaches "sword" near Caen. Your president Obama won't be too far as you well know.
Thank Anna for her wishes from us all.
Thank you for your super blog.

Ali, Thanks for posting this. Having heard from my own hero (my DH who is currently in Afghanistan) today that they lost an aircraft and a pilot yesterday, I am feeling most blessed to live in a country whose men and women are willing to risk our lives to protect our freedoms! I am hoping to get involved someway. Oh.. and according to DH, the cards they have access to in the PX right now are all graduation and birthday.. seems like they could all use some other themes! LOL!
Thanks again!
Trish
