Hi everyone,

I had an awesome but tiring day today.  We had to shop and pack food baskets for our church for tomorrow.  We are preparing 19 food baskets (not really fitting in baskets though ) we had so much stuff got these families it was wonderful.  I took the kids with me to run today and do the shopping and sorting and packing (hubby was at work again)...anyhow, the boys were so good at helping and learning what the true meaning of Christmas is.  It is so nice to give isn't it?  Nothing makes you feel better in my opinion.   Anyhow, it was a whole day affair since afterwards we set up for the kids programs and church services for Sunday ( we are currently meeting in a school building).  So the day we spent together tops the Holiday Season so far, tomorrow we get to see the faces of those we are giving too, they will serve them lunch, present the kids their presents and then send home the food packages!  YIPPEE!  I can't wait!  Its so nice to feel like this!  This is what I want my kids to remember not the "wants" they have but the needs of others, we can help with!  

Tomorrow after church we will be starting our baking as well so its one fun weekend for all!  Enjoy your Holidays!
