Friends if you are looking for something fun and easy to keep you organized this Christmas Season just keep reading. I stole a great idea from a girlfriend of mine (thanks Renae!). We all know how to make red and green construction paper links for the christmas tree. Well here is the twist, make 25 of them and write events on each one.

Hey Heidi! Just wanted to check in on 'ya and say hello.
This Christmas link idea is genius! Thanks for sharing it. I think I might start one. We have a countdown link for Ryan's remaining days (too many to count really) of deployment, but I love this idea of writing things to do on the links. Very useful for so many occassions! :o)
Talk again soon, Friend!
