Count Down To The Big Day By Karolyn Loncon

This calendar will also keep mom and dad on their toes to get all their shopping, baking, wrapping, etc. done in time for the holiday.
Pull out some of your paper scraps and get started. What a fun tradition to have with your family, whether it be for your children, grandchildren, or just for you!
