February Fun Stuff To Do!! All ideas submitted by Jeanine (moosassah)! Thanks, Jeanine!

Feb. 2 ~ Ground Hog Day

Punxsutawney Phil, our Pennsylvanian friend, lumbers above ground to the dismay or delight of Americans. If he sees his shadow he’ll scurry back into his borough dashing our dreams for an early Spring. Thankfully, we have our albums to bring back the warmer days if need be. If Phil disappoints you today, crack open an album & remember how beautiful your garden was or that trip to the beach from last summer.

Feb. 5 ~ Superbowl Sunday

Oh what a great day!!! Men everywhere are glued to t.v. screens. That means the rest of us are free to scrap the whole day away. Be sure that your football heroes have plenty of snacks on hand to keep them busy!

Feb. 8 ~ Boy Scout Day

A day dedicated to encouraging the values of good discipline. Good discipline like doing something scrap related for 5 minutes a day??? Try it.

Feb. 14 ~ Valentines Day

Break out the hearts, just don't brake any! Celebrate your loved ones & your love for scrapping by making cards or a LO of your loved ones.

Feb. 13-19 ~ Random Act of Kindness Week

Here's a week for you to build up your good karma points. A simple unselfish act & a smile is all it takes to make someone's day. If you are a member of IDOS's RAD group, maybe this is the week to send out some RAKs.

Feb. 15-21 ~ Love your Pet Week

Time to love & honor Fido, Snowball & Nemo. Does your pet have a LO yet?

Feb. 20 ~ Presidents' Day

A day dedicated to all the presidents. It falls between Lincoln & Washington's birthdays. If you're lucky it's a day off from work.

Feb. 28 ~ Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras

Beads! Beads! This holiday will forever belong to New Orleans. It's one last hurrah before the Lenten season. Just don't give up scrapping!!!
