...our picnic in the park...

...yummy yummy picnic fare with the most amazing group

of creative chicks in town. as usual we had a fab day for our end 

of year get-together at green point park. with homemade cheese sticks,

caprese salad, meringues, cupcakes and oh so much more

already getting excited for the next one,

this past year has been incredible, the help and support from all of you,

for all our 'causes', its truly amazing how we can make such a big difference 

when we do all these little things together. design really can change the world!

so a big fat hug and a sloppy grateful kiss to you all...

your energy and even your beautiful artwork, we really appreciate

all of you who have been, and continue to be so generous...
