Christmas is Coming! Christmas is Coming!

Admittedly, I've had the song Must Be Santa stuck in my head far longer and far more times than I'd like to acknowledge in the past few weeks, but the truth is, I'm so excited for the Christmas season!  For those of you that know my family, you know that Christmas time=Festival of Trees, and it's almost here!

Festival is an event that raises money for Primary Children's Medical Center in Salt Lake City, to provide medical services to those who are unable to pay for the expensive life-saving treatments for their children.  Every tree/gift shop item/treat/wreath/gingerbread house/minute of entertainment/host(ess)ing service/everything else is donated, and every single penny goes to the needy kids at Primary's.  Last year, $1.6 million was raised!  Truly one of the better charities out there.  It makes a fabulous date, way to pass the time, YM/YW activity, you name it.  So let's face it: there's really no excuse for you not to go.  

Here's the scoop:

December 3-6 (next Wednesday through Saturday)
10am-10pm
Sandy Expo Center 
(roughly 9400 South State Street in Sandy)
$4 adults (12 and older) $3 kids (ages 2-11) at the door
I have discount tickets for $3.50 and $2.50 and Zion's bank has them as well

COME!!!
