Since moving to Altadena, my family has gone to our neighbors for a Tree Decorating Party every year, watching our kids join together to hang ornaments that were collected over decades. We had a neighborhood holiday party where we decided on the theme for that years "cookoff". We found community. We also had our youngest's first Christmas there, two weeks before we lost everything. I am working on this donation drive to take a holiday season that I was dreading, and bring back some joy - for myself and everyone around me. And to say thank you all for lifting each other up to get through this difficult rebuilding process. I love you Altadena!
