Christmas Cards




 Today is the day I decided to write my Christmas cards, unfortunately I did not have much time for card making this year (so most of them will not be handmade). Instead, I will mail everyone a delicious cookie recipe. I found a free printable template „here“.



When you're mailing out your Christmas cards this year, buy a couple extras and send them to the following addresses: 

Any Wounded or Recovering Soldier 
Walter Reed Army Medical Center 
6900 Georgia Avenue NW 
Washington DC 20307-0003 

Any Child 
St. Jude's Children's Hospital
262 Danny Thomas Place
Memphis, Tennessee 38105. 

Address them exactly as noted above and the cards will be distributed to patients at these two medical facilities. St. Jude’s actually has a card recycle program in which the cards are recollected after being distributed, relined and embossed with hospital insignia and then resold with the monies going back to the hospital charities. 
You can put a smile on two faces for a couple bucks by doing this.

I showed her each square and what she can do with it. The first thing she noticed was the wording; „Mit Liebe Gemacht“ which translates to „Made with love“.  Oma Hildegard is German and I wanted to make sure she would recognize things and always remember that we love her.  What is a Fidget Blanket? Fidget blankets are therapeutic small lap quilts to which different kinds of things are sewn or added on. These items offer sensory stimulation that can have a calming effect on patient who struggle with memory loss. The Fidget blankets help them stay busy avoiding boredom. It provides a means of performing repetitive behaviors that are often reassuring and calming. ...
