Sonshine News
Welcome to Sonshine News. In case you are wondering why I picked this name for the newsletter, Sonshine is the nickname I use for my son Joey. In fact, it is the only one he will allow me to use. Plus we all need a little extra sunshine in our lives.
My Pick of the Week:
Since this is Memorial Day Weekend, I want to have something special for you with special thanks to our Angel Diana. Please remember what this holiday is about, remembering those who honorably served our country. Every year, my family goes to the local park for a special ceremony celebrating it. The park's name is War Memorial Park. Meet Carole, she has made a wonderful page for Memorial Day. Make sure you drop her a line to be put on her mailing list for new pages and tell her what a wonderful job she has done. Tell her Sonshine News sent you. :-) http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Ranch/4188/memone.html This is her home page index Here is the link for the rest of her wonderful pages. I think she has done a wonderful job. clascard

I have a cute idea to share with you for a Father's Day Present. Last year Sonshine and I made Daddy something extra special. I bought some different colors of fabric paint. I got this at Walmart, but you can find fabric paint in craft stores also. I also got some white boxer shorts and a white T-shirt. On the boxer shorts, Sonshine put swirls and different designs on it. Then I fold them in half and pressed the halves together. That way the extra paint was on both sides. It look neat. For the T-shirt, I made a template made of cardboard of Sonshine's hands. I used the template to cut out a sponge shaped like his hands. Then Sonshine just dabbed away on it. It was less messy that way and plus Sonshine hates to get his hands messy.
Do you have any ideas to share with us for Father's day? Send them to me to put in Sonshine News.
