Families really felt it helped them be able to picture HOD in their own homes, as well as get a snapshot of different HOD guides. Thanks to all who helped last year, and in case you missed the photobooks, they can be seen online here:http://heartofdakotasphotobooks.shutterfly.com/
It is now time to begin putting together a CTC photobook. Two things are needed: pictures and positive comments. Could you please email me pics of your dc doing your favorite HOD things from CTC? (projects, activities, whatever you think captures the joy of HOD). I'd like to have CTC well represented with pictures and positive comments, so send as many pics as your heart leads you to. Children's names are NOT included with pictures. You don't need to have comments for each picture, though you can label them (if it's easy to do) with a phrase, i.e. Senate game, Nebuchadnezzar's statue, slingshot, R & S grammar, Poetry Painting of Fragmentary Blue, etc. I want to stress this is NOT necessary though - just the pictures are fine too.
Please include this information with your comments: your first name, city, and state, and up to 5 sentences telling why you love HOD
Please email the pictures and comments to me at:
rjgrosz@siouxvalley.net
If you already have a blog with CTC pics on it, you can just email me your blog link and I can take them right off there.
If you are unsure how to email photos, and would rather share photos in an HOD post but are wondering how to upload them, just do the following:
1. Go to http://www.photobucket.com
2. Sign up for a free account.
3. Upload pics from your computer.
4. Check the boxes next to the pics you want to use.
5. At the bottom of the screen, click on "generate HTML and IMG codes"
6. Then copy the 4th. box labeled "IMG Images for Message Board"
7. Finally, paste them into your HOD post.
Then, I can take them directly from your post.
I'll be posting reminders off and on, but if pictures/comments could be sent by mid-March at the latest, that would allow me to finish the photobook in time for the first book fair. Thanks in advance for your help!
In Christ,
Julie
