HI FRIENDS!!!

Hi Summit Mommies!! We miss you all!!! As many of you know we have been trying to add onto our family for 6 years now. Which leads me to our great news....Adam & I are starting the adoption process. We still are a few months out until we can be qualified which actually works out great since our house won't be finished until October. I just wanted to ask for your help if you know anyone who is thinking about adoption. We would consider adopting from birth to three depending on the situation and gender doesn't matter to us. Morgan is now 6 1/2 and starting 1st grade tomorrow. We have involved her in the process so far and she asks almost daily when we are getting our baby! Hopefully it doesn't take too long for her. :) I love you all and hopefully we can come see you soon!! Love, Megs

Relief Society Activity!

Summit Sisters,

Come join us for a Relief Society sewing activity!

Date: November 6th
Time: 7:00
Where: Stake Center

We will be learning basic sewing skills on real sewing machines. You will be using those skills to make a burlap table runner to take home! All materials for table runners will be provided by Relief Society. Limit one per person.

If you would like to make a table runner (and did not sign up on Sunday) leave you name as a comment and I will add you to the list. You MUST sign up so we can buy materials for you!  We will be sending sign ups around on Sunday which is the LAST day to sign up!

We will also be making baby blankets for those on need. We are asking for donations of fleece and/or flannel for these blankets. Please donate fabric in 2 yard increments. Please leave a comment if you are willing to donate material.

We will be serving a delicious pumpkin treat and hot apple cider. We look forward to spending a fun night with you while we learn an important skill. See you there!

Babysitting will be provided.

Dear Everyone,

I've had some requests to do a 4th of July craft.  So, I came up with 2 fun and fairly simple ideas.

"The Land of the Free... sign is 11" by 10"  and will be $12 if you come and make it.  If you would like me to make it, it will be $17.  

"America, est... sign is 15" by 8" and will be $10 if you make it.  If you would like me to make it, it will be $15.

I will cut, sand, and paint the board as well as cut and weed the vinyl.  You will just sand the already painted edges, glaze the board (if you like that look), and slap on the vinyl--(you know that's the official term ).

Because of the time and wanting you to enjoy your hard work :) before the holiday,  MONEY needs to be to me by this Friday, June 22.  I will cut and paint this weekend and we will get together early next week.  We will meet during the day on Tuesday (June 26) and Thursday (June 28) from 9--11AM and that night from 7-9PM.

Any camp people--if you want to do it, just shoot me an email or text and you can pay me when you get back.  If there are any issues with money or the time--call me and we will work it out!! 

Please feel free to share this email and craft day with anyone!!

Let's craft!  Dawn Damron

Kitten needs a new home

I seriously need help in finding a new home for my cat. It is really more than what I had wanted even though I grew up with cats all the time. I have a ten week old kitten now. It really needs a better home and people that are willing to show more that what we can give her!! It is very active and loves the attention. I prefer an outdoor kitten. This little kitten is a girl and is a beautiful gray with white legs. Come by and see it if you are interested! If unsure or know of someone that wants one pass on my phone number.

Hey Everyone,


As it is getting close to Father's Day, I wanted to offer the Priesthood Line of Authority plaques for anyone who didn't make them last year.  I've had several people ask me to make them.  So, if you are interested, text me or email me--I would love to do them!!  They are $20 per plaque.

Garage Cabinets

Earlier this week my husband told me to get a few price quotes for garage cabinets.  I just thought to find out if anyone has had cabinets put in their garage.  Please let me know who you have used or pass on some information of someone you recommend.  That would be awesome!!

Dear Everyone,

I'm so excited--ANOTHER CRAFT DAY!! My Favorite time!!

There are 3 separate things you can make:

The first 4 pictures are of JEWELRY HOLDERS and BOW/FLOWER HOLDERS.

1. You buy the frame size you want--8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, etc.

The jewelry holder does not need glass, the bow holder can or not.

2. We will paint, glaze, sand, distress, etc. the frames any color,

if you don't like the color but like the size and look of the frame.

You will need to let me know what color you want.

3. We will install the screening or paper/fabric backing and ribbon.

4. If you want--We will make paper or fabric flowers for the frames decor.

I will supply the fabric in white or cream.

If you would like a different color or pattern just bring 1/4th of a yard

of whatever fabric you want.

I have scraps here which anyone may use--but may not be the right colors...

5. It is $5 a foot for what we will do here--#2-4. So 8 x 10 and 11 x 14 are $5,

16 x 20 would be $10, etc.

The rest of the pictures are of a new DOOR DECOR.

(I've been wanting to change some of mine for a while!)

1. The first piece is the one on top, it says WELCOME with a little scroll

underneath and a knob to hold whatever you want to hang on it

(the picture with the wreath hanging is an example of other things

that can be hung on the WELCOME sign--just to show other ideas)

This is $12.

2. You can also make the 2 other boards shown hanging from the

WELCOME sign.

On one it says SPRING/SUMMER, the other says FALL/WINTER.

They come with everything shown.

The 2 boards to hang from the Welcome sign--are $8 each--$16 together.

3. As one whole package it will be $28 (Welcome board and 2 season boards).

If you want me to make the Welcome sign alone it will cost $18,

the Welcome sign with the 2 seasonal hanging boards--$38

DATES: If you need to come at a different time than I've planned just email me back!

1. MONEY DUE by Friday, April 13th (scary....:)

2. We will meet at my house (14918 New Foal Trail, Fontana) on

Thursday, April 19th from 8:30AM--noon and 6PM--9PM

and Friday, April 20th from 8:30AM--noon.

Mt. Sac Farm Tour

Mt. Sac Community College in Walnut is offering Farm Tours once again. A group from our ward went about 5 or 6 years ago and saw some neat farm animals and their babies. I've scheduled a 1 hour tour on Monday, April 9th at 10am for the mom's with kids not in school that would like to go and then another tour on Tuesday, May 29th at 11am for the older kids when they're out of school. They are asking for a donation of $1 per kid. I need a head count of who is going and how many cars will need a parking spot since we will need parking passes. Please carpool if you can. I need to tell Mt. Sac these numbers by March 20th for the first tour. I will get directions out when it gets closer.
Thanks,
Jayme
