Every ...That is so wonderful that you donated toys. Every year before Christmas our kids take atleast 10 toys from their closets and donate them to the local mission. It sure makes them feel good. I have hopes of talking the family into donating all of the money we spend at Christmas time and serving at a soup kitchen on Christmas Eve just so we can see really how fortunate we are. Everyone laughed at me last year when I suggested it... But that doesn't stop me! I enjoy reading your blog. Its nice to see someone else that enjoys the same hours of the day... Kids go to bed at 730pm and I wake up at 430am!

I kind of like the natural look of your fence - but painted would be ok too. It's amazing how some of these projects seem to drag on - I have some experience at that!Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16523089898331291694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5585083146261174706.post-46991445894116175482009-12-13T07:37:09.720-07:002009-12-13T07:37:09.720-07:00Good Morning Mike & Pat... What a great thing ...Good Morning Mike & Pat... What a great thing to do donating toys... I believe everyone who can should do that and also donate to the food for the needy every chance they can... I try to do it everytime I go shopping... I have a Marine friend who started me on the toy drive many years ago... Your walk is looking good and you know adventually it will get done. ☺☺☺ You are very special people.

This year we raised over $1400, so a lot of kids and elders will have a brighter Christmas. And the Benson Fire Department also has a drive for Toys for Tots. Yup, we get to help spread the Christmas joy!Jerry and Suzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01381487159402842587noreply@blogger.com
