Christmas Cards from 2011

Every year I have so much fun designing friends and my families Christmas card. Taylor and I haven't sent out a card since December of 2008 when I was just 8 weeks pregnant with Mamie. Since then I just haven't been in much of the mood to send one. This year with Burke here I was more in the spirit :) Leading up to Christmas is crazy for me so I didn't get my cards done till the last minute. I am sure I left out a ton of people because I was scrambling to get them done. Sorry for any of you out there that didn't get one :) I took a picture so you all could see. I also wanted to show you the card I did for Brit, my mom and Ashley (my sister-in-law) They all turned out so cute.

Introducing Mamie's Poppy Plates

As you all know, I am Mamie's mom, and Mamie was my first child. I was pregnant with her from October 2008 to June 25th, 2009 when she was born a sleeping angel (stillborn) two and a half weeks before her due date. Stillbirth and infant death are realities that too many parents face even today. Did you know that each year 1 in 115 babies delivered is stillborn? And 1 in every 102 newborns die before the age of 28 days old? Now, a year after losing Mamie, I have started Mamie's Poppy Plates, my organization providing keepsakes for parents who are not able to take their babies home from the hospital. Because handprints and footprints are something that we cherish as parents of children in Heaven or here on this earth, I wanted to find a beautiful way to preserve such a precious reminder of our babies. Your donation of $13 will provide a plate to bereaved families who are delivering at St. Vincent Hospital. Their baby’s birth stats, hand and footprints will be stampe...

VBS

Burke and Winnie just finished their first Vacation Bible School and they had a blast. I did as well :) I got to help in Burkes class which is always really interesting. There were about 20 3yr olds in there so it was WILD :) It was a fun 3 days of learning about how God is our light. We sang "This little light of mine" everyday and Winnie is trying so hard to sing it. She walks around the house with her little pointer finger up mumbling. I love it. - Sarah Winnie eating the stickers instead of putting them on her art piece :)
