On Sunday, December 14th, Hands to the Heavens and Twenty Peaceful Minutes (20PM) are holding the first-ever 20PM Community Christmas Party! This event will be the first of many 20PM events; in addition to introducing 20PM members to one another, the entire community is invited to attend and get to know many of the 20PM regulars - with over 770 registered users, while you may not realize it, chances are you know someone who's involved on the site. Read on for more information, and the RSVP form, which is located at the bottom of this page. Information aboutÂ dropping off donations for theÂ food and blanket drive may be found below, as well.

The event is completely and totally free and open to anyone interested in attending - come have fun, meet your neighbors and vote for Forney's best Christmas cookies!

Sorry to de-rail here for a sec, but Heather, I don't know how long you've had your new 'sig' (at the bottom of your posts), but I find it VERY amusing!
I like it a lot.

Can't remember if I mentioned this or not, but we have little activity books and crayons for the kids, so please feel free to bring the kids! We're also looking at getting some little treat bags for the kids, too.
