"Welcome" To Black Friday.....

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Remember the time and smiles from your family could never have a price tag on them!!

Some of my "elves" braved the early morning yesterday to help get a jump on the holiday season to help our children. We received several gift donations already. Board games, baby dolls, a few barbie dolls and batteries.
Tip from one of my "elves": Target has packs of Ray-O-Vac batteries for $1!! This is a super inexpensive way to help out as EVERYTHING seems to run on batteries these days. (Also a great way to drive your co-workers insane at home by making sure the toys run and run haha)

I have received a list from the Union hall and we had 295 children signed up this past Monday. I will be in contact with the Union over the week-end as if we are going to pull this off I need a little more information than just sex and age. Hope to get an update out on that ASAP. I have already heard from a few who let me know that their child is included in the count but through family support they want to pass on our assistance to make it possible to help those who are in true need.

As we kick off the holiday season, I had to share with you my all time favorite Christmas song. I think it truly embodies the meaning of the season.



A random act of kindness goes a long way!

Until next time...(which will probably be tomorrow or even later today!)
Much Love,
