Just got a call from Jackie. Her nine-year-old granddaughter had recently purchased one of our Family Memory Tree kits at Deseret Book. She wanted to give it to her grandfather for Father's Day. She picked out each picture all by herself and carefully created each face button. According to Jackie, it was a big hit! Grandpa loved it so much that he took it to church to share it with his friends.
Next time someone asks me if our projects are hard, I'll be able to tell them that a nine-year-old did one. And did it beautifully, I might add!
THANK YOU for sharing your stories and excitement for preserving memories! We can't do everything, but everyone can do SOMETHING!

Intermountain Suzuki Strings Institute
What a busy week! It was great connecting with everyone at the Intermountain Suzuki Strings Institute. The sounds coming through the halls were amazing. Wish we could have sat in on every lesson and performance but we had a blast sharing our passion for preserving memories with the parents of these incredibly talented musicians.
As promised, here's a picture of our featured family face frame. It claims a proud spot on a prominent wall in our home. Learn how to make your own here!
We look forward to hearing your thoughts on the new practice boards that were unveiled at the show. Be sure to let us know if you have any questions or suggestions to make them even better.
If you're a music teacher and you want to offer the practice boards to your students send us an email and we'll let you know the special offering just for teachers! Send your questions to mythoughts@storiesbyme.com
