Greetings!

Those April showers have certainly brought out the May flowers!  Sunshine and warm weather have returned to the north coast. 
 
With May we have Mother's Day as well as First Communions and Confirmations to celebrate.  Some of you may also be planning a graduation party for your son or daughter.  We have wonderful chocolates to enhance any event or make a unique gift.
 
We hope that your spring continues to be happy and healthy.

Sincerely,
Judi Horchler & Jan Beck
