That's a wrap on our 2nd annual holiday gift back event!
THANK YOU all so much for all of your donations!!
THANK YOU to Blythe and the Elks for providing us with the warm space again this year!!
THANK YOU to Blythe and Stacy for the donations of cookies!
THANK YOU Steve for making sure Santa spread some holiday cheer throughout the day!!
THANK YOU Rob, Aleaha, Jamie (buddy the elf), Landry, Alysha, Alana, Ashley, Stacy, Ary, JC, William, Georgia, Annalisce, Toni, LeRon, Steve, Dre for everything!!
From loading, unloading, setting up, wrapping, directing the constant flow of families through, facepainting and temp tattoos, cookie station, hot cocoa bar, gingerbread house station, all the craft tables, adult gift selection, coats and glove donations, clean up, packing up the car and everything single thing in between!!
These events are fully run on donations and hours of volunteer time from my family and friends who help it run as smoothly as possible!! I am so grateful for you all!! π
I don't have any photos myself but I do know that my day was full of smiling kids and laughter and I'm so blessed for it to have happened again this year!
We handed out and wrapped over 15 totes of toys/gifts for all ages!
We got to pass out tons of hats and gloves and all donated coats went home to help someone else keep warm this winter! On a 12Β° day, knowing that can't help but to make you smile!
I hope all of you who got to join us today enjoyed some family time during this busy holiday season! Thank you for sharing you families with us!!
Next event is in the spring for our 4th Annual Easter Egg Hunt! π₯
Merry π Christmas from my family to yours!!
