Guess where I went today?

We picked up  pizza, had a talent show, (they sing songs in their native language) read a book and they got the year end bags ❤️
They were very happy and grateful.  Life is good ☀️❤️🌻

We love Katelyn and her class!

I volunteer with the United Way and their Welcome Baby Program.

Spring Service

We got together with my sister Lisa's family and made fun bags for Katelyn's class for Spring Break.

It was so fun to take them and visit the class.

One of my favorite service projects ❤

 

We went to the School on my birthday, it was a great way to celebrate.

We took cupcakes!

Family Christmas Service Project

We purchased supplies and bags for the students, 

so they would have what they need for Christmas Break.

                 Sam and I went to the school to deliver the bags and play games with the kids

                                       

 Sam read them: How The Grinch Stole Christmas.

They loved the gloves ❤

The kids were so great!  What a great experience!

                                       

They gave us lots of hugs and high fives

                                       

and they sent us thank you notes!

Thank you Katelyn for letting us participate!

Christmas

I love Christmas Cards, they are so fun to get and catch up with everyone.

It was a quiet Christmas around here.

We couldn't find a movie that we wanted to see so

we did a service project instead...

Cut scarfs out of fleece attached a note and

drove around to tie them on posts where they hopefully will be found.

We hope it brings a little cheer and warmth to someone.

We are so grateful for the Christmas Season and the love of our Savior.

Girls Weekend 2019

 We went to the St. George Food Bank and sorted food.

Do you know the food bank takes food dated back to 2010.

If you find outdated food, don't throw it away donate to a food bank.

 We were so fast at sorting we had time for a tour of the facility.

We found the service project on JustServe.org

 

Our second service project was we all cleaned out a few kitchen cupboards.

Took everything out and wiped them down.

 For the third service project Jill replaced the dryer vent.

 Sarah finished a quilt project she started a few years ago

We learned to Crochet.

We ventured to the landfill to throw away a chair that someone previously broke. 

Not sure who broke it, no one fessed up.

Tried a new Restaurant - Viva Chicken.  It was tasty.

 Betsy and Sarah made yummy macaroons.

 We knited

 We walked

 We shopped

 Even used up a bit of felt.

We had a great time together..until next November!

It is nice that my mom is looking down on us.
