On the 30th

of September we had our Hall Family Christmas party.  I know, it's not Christmas.  But it seems that the last few years the weather has been so "frightful: on the 26th of December, that we decided to do it when it was "delightful."   We had it at Gary and Lynn's, and the weather was perfect and the setting beautiful.
 

 




 
















 
I had fun making these prizes with Hershey's Nugget candy.  I inserted my grandparent's picture in a document and made a background and design.  Then I ran the page off on full page labels.
 
 
  Then I cut them and wrapped them around the candy.

Then I made little gold boxes for them.
 
That was so much fun that I then made some for Bunny Hollow Bed and Breakfast, with a picture of a bunny that looks like Cotty on it.  Next I'm going to make some with Disney pictures.   Then I may have to make some for the Candy store.   I think I'm having a little too much fun with this.

    It's no wonder to me that you and Loralee aret the perfect match! Beautiful party. I'm so glad you've stayed so close with your cousins. You're a great example for the rest of us.

    Thanks for all the photos and commentary--it was the next best thing to being there. I wish we could have made it. Miss all of you.
