It's already that time of year again! We need to find a family or two that we are going to help make their Christmas special. I know many families are financially strapped this year, many in our own family, but we are truly blessed as a whole. We have a large, loving family that is able to truly make a difference to another family.
Someone asked me to mention this too. This year at our Christmas party, instead of buying gifts for a man/woman exchange like we usually do, maybe we could go back to white elephant gifts. Then we could take that $20 and add it to the amount that we were going to give to the Christmas family. For example, if you were going to give $25, you would now be giving $65 to the family (man & woman gift). We could really make the white elephant gift fun, like for the men, oldest tool in your garage or women, the ugliest sweater. I'll make a poll in the right hand column, please vote for what you would rather do!
If you have a family that you want to nominate, please email me. The family will always be anonymous. Also if you are ready to donate money, you can send it to me at 13835 Hamilton Meadows Lane, FW IN 46814. We need all money by Thanksgiving.

So...I can see on the poll that the majority of people who voted voted for the white elephant gift. Is that what we're doing? I'm working on Christmas shopping and need to know what to plan for! :) Just thought I'd check for an update.
