JUST A REMINDER . . .

I LOVE YOU PAPA!

Paper or Plastic?

It's a question you're asked all the time, "Paper or plastic?" What's the environmentally correct answer? "Neither." More than 380 million plastic bags are thrown away in the United States every year, and those plastic bags can take up to 1,000 years to biodegrade in landfills. And while paper bags do eventually biodegrade, an estimated 14 million trees a year have to be cut down to make 10 billion paper bags. The solution? Bring your own bag to the store.

In commemoration of Earth Day yesterday, Ricky and I are challenging you to stop using store bags, and to bring your own! We have made the switch and it is really easy and good for Mother Earth-just keep reuseable bags (you can find them now at almost any store) in your trunk and voila! You have them when you need them. Also, many times we get a bag because it is a "habit" but when we are buying smaller items, you don't even need a bag and can just carry it out!

I have a feeling . . .

Grandma needs a KISS

Can someone go give her one for me and Mommy since we're too far away?

I LOVE TO SEE THE TEMPLE

I miss you Alena. I found a picture of you today and carried it around all day and said, "Lena, Lena, Lena." Thank you for being my friend and for being such a good, sweet cousin to me. Congratulations on your new sister, she's so lucky to have you as her big sister.

I love you!

Love,

CRISTIAN
