Christmas Project Idea

“Make a deck of family playing cards and play games during Christmas break. It’s fun to remember the memories together as a family.”

What it Means to be a Gibb

Legacy Book

SUBMITTED BY SANDY MANGANI

"A picture of my deceased parents hangs on the wall in my living room and my four year old and I talk about them often. Not a day goes by that he doesn't look at those pictures and mention a story I've told. With that in mind, I'm always looking for that perfect Christmas gift for my brother and sister. Their needs are met and it's not easy to find the gift they will truly enjoy."So, I put the two ideas together. A storybook of our parents' legacy begins with them as children, outlining some significant events in their life while growing up, while in the military, going to school, their wedding, their children, and their grandchildren. I asked each sibling to write favorite memories to include. The most fun was learning what character trait each of them believes they have from each parent. I thought this would be a perfect way not only to memorialize my parents' enriching life, but a way for us to keep their memory alive through stories with their grandchildren, some of whom never got to meet them. I plan to give a book to each family for Christmas."

The Sleigh and the Key - 5x5 Storybook

This true Christmas story was written by Marilyn (Brewer) Eichenlaub and features three generations of her family and their special red sleigh. For you Greene County folks, this is a local history story as well, highlighting Ruff Creek, Waynesburg and East Ward Elementary School! I just completed the scanning and layout for her. It is a 5x5 book so it is going to be so cute in the Christmas stockings of her great-grandchildren this year!

PROJECT IDEA - "Back to School"

Using the Softbound, Spiral bound book:

"My high school-aged kids loved making their own school planners for this year. With the younger kids, I helped them but they loved making one too. They are all excited to use them!"
