Heritage Makers on Good Morning America

We're a hit at the Show!

I was interviewed by Nicole and Alyssa of Mommy Warriors at Baby Celebration L.A. 2008 at the L.A. Convention Center and they decided to feature Heritage Makers as one of their favorite products on the video they produced for their website.

Baby Celebration LA 2008

This past weekend we had a booth at Baby Celebration L.A. at the Los Angeles Convention Center and we had such a great time. Here are various pictures from the event.

It's been great these past few weeks! Babyfest in Bakersfield was such a wonderful event and I met so many amazing people. Valerie McDonough and Diane Tiede joined our team and I'm so excited for them. Their passion for story and photos is so inspiring and I can't wait to help them with their business launch.

We also had our first DigiCrop in the LA area on February 28 and it was so much fun! Hazel was our instructor for the evening and she shared so many great tips and tricks on how to make wonderful page layouts for our storybooks. She was feeling really generous so everyone who attended got a free template of their choice and a free storycard credit. Christine Bryant, the massage therapist, was definitely one of the favorites of the evening! And of course, Terrace Cafe provided a wonderful venue and really yummy food!

Another example of how bringing people together to share their stories and photos and creating storybooks is pure magic :)

Can't wait until next month!

ABCs of Love
Let you sweetheart know how much you care by giving them and ABC's of Love Storybook. For each letter of the alphabet, choose one word that describes a characteristic of your relationship, or a favorite place, event, or activity. You may want to come up with these words as you look through the pictures that you and your sweetheart have taken together over the years.
