Crafts and stuff

Couple weeks ago, Elsa and I signed up for Cookie decoration event at Calvary church in Vancouver.  

Yay! 

Last time we went to the similar event all the way to Tigard, OR.  This time, Main St, downtown of Vancouver.  I pick Elsa up at 5 pm, had a coffee drive thru and hit the traffic.  Took us almost an hour to get there, find a parking lot.  There were lot of people, volunteers, bigs' and little. Members of the church did a wonderful job with organization, supplies, even the customized gift bags were a nice touch. 


We start with Christmas tree ornament making, then moved to the card making and eventually to the cookie decorations.  After that we kind of lost each other, it's a wonder how I managed to snap occasional pictures.


Card making in the process.  


The cookies already decorated, waiting to be dried.



there was this beautiful tree, Christmas music blasting, people mulling around - very positive atmosphere.  The church raise some funds and prepare gifts for bigs - $5.00 gift card for Starbucks.  And little received $30.00 gift card to the Winco Food - basically providing holiday meal to the whole family.


This ornament Elsa made for me.  Those snowmen are her fingerprints.  I absolutely loved the idea.



And here we are :)
