It's that time of year when we are all shopping for those special people in our lives! If you can, please remember to shop locally. It truly means a lot to our community and the storefronts / restaurants keep our downtown vibrant! 

If we can take a pledge to shop locally for our holiday shopping, it means that it could possibly one less empty storefront at this time next year. We want to keep our storefronts open! It is worth the few extra dollars and stroll down the Main Street! 

Try to find a new store you haven't been in or truly buy extra from your favorites! If you don't see anything you love, buy gift certificate so your loved ones can choose! 

​Thanks and happy shopping! 

We want to hear from you! We will be starting a blog soon but we want to make it relevant to our readers! Email us at lmkidlife@gmail.com or comment below to let us know what you want us to feature!
