Operation Christmas Child

The girls and I had fun shopping at Target to fill shoe boxes for Samaritan's Purse this past Saturday. We did 3 boxes for girls 10-14 and 1 boy box, the same age. Some items we purchased were: hair accessories, soap, toothpaste, toothbrush, comb, brush, watch, slinky, paper tablet, pens, pencils, pencil sharpeners, stuffed zebra and giraffe, ball..that's all I can remember. Our church is a distribution center and collects thousands of boxes each year. Here are a couple pictures of Abbi and Hannah in front of the outdoor Christmas tree as it was being put up and inside at the collection table.

HAVE A SAFE AND THANKFUL THANKSGIVING!

LOOK AT YOU! 2 posts in the same week -- woo hoo for us readers!!! I LOVE the Operation Christmas Child program -- I have to say this is the 1st year that we have not participated with boxes -- we were able to help with shipping, but we were gone last Sunday, the last Sunday for collecting, so we missed it -- don't ask me who forgot the 2 weeks before to bring the stuff in -- anyway, it a such a great program. The girls are simply beautiful!
