This layout is in honor of my son, C.A.'s June wedding to Katie! The wedding took place at Fairfax County Historical Courthouse, and the entire event was planned in TEN days because C.A.'s Marine Unit was called up to be deployed in Aug. However, three days before he was to leave, the Marines decided that they didn't need him to go over after all! Thank you Lord!

This is the birthday card I created with the Bella paper pack!

This is the next class we will do on Aug. 24 for the All About Me class!

This is the first page of our All About Me scrapbooks. I decided to use the CTMH Bella paper pack, because it is one of my favorites with purple!

I love teaching the 'All About Me' class! These women have decided to scrap who they are, so that their family can read about who THEY are too! Each person chose their own paper pack to use, and will use the same choice for all the All About Me classes they take!

Danine and Kathy, our 'princesses' for the day, earned the right to be treated like royalty by getting three friends to join them at the crop. They were honored with decorated chairs, were served on special plates, and given 'Royal Gifts'!

Our Operation Smile benefit crop has net $2435.00 which will help 10 children get the life-changing surgery they need!

Scenes from the Operation Smile Benefit crop, coordinated by the MeriMajesties CTMH team!

Croppers of all ages got together to create beautiful pages and cards while enjoying each others company. Classes were offered and taught by MeriMajesties team members. We are grateful to Knox Church for donating their space, Peggy for making our shirts, Costco for lunch and prizes, Giant for donating snacks, Olive Garden for the dinner salad and breadsticks, Chris for donating the color printer for our raffle and Mirella (weekendmemories) for loaning us her tools for the day! A special thank you to Mary, our masseuse, for not only getting knots out of our shoulders, but also donating all of her proceeds of the evening to Operation Smile!
