Things have been really hectic here to say the least! I do apologize for not getting my November newsletter out. My only excuse is that November was a wonderful and busy month for the Metaxas clan. I was honored for my work with senior citizens by the United Adult Ministries with the Rose Kryzak Leadership Award. Follow this link to read more about the award. http://www.queenstribune.com/50plus/ThreeHonoredForSeniorAssis.html My family and friends were in attendance on November 5th when I was presented with the award and since I knew Rose personally and worked with her when she was alive the award meant a great deal to me.
Little did I know this was just the beginning of my wonderful month
We celebrated my daughter Brandi’s birthday on November 6th, my 40th wedding anniversary on November 16th and my 60th birthday on November 18th. I though the celebrating was over. LOL, shows you what I know. My wonderful children threw a surprise party to celebrated my 60th birthday and 40th wedding anniversary on November 20th. My husband and I were pleasantly surprised. I’ve posted a picture of the favors they had designed for my party.

January we will start again with our normal newsletters.
Beads & Baubles NY will be on vacation from Wednesday, December 16th until Wednesday, December 30th and no orders will be shipped during that time. We will begin shipping orders again on January 4, 2010.
Wishing all of you a very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Joyous Kwanzaa and a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year!
