Operation Christmas Child


There are so many children that don't have anything.  I find myself wishing I could get Kagen this or that but, in reality she has everything she NEEDS.  I often forget that there are children who go to bed hungry.  I want Kagen to realize there are others that don't have a warm place to live, hot water, toys, shoes, etc.   I want her to grow up having a desire to serve the Lord and give back to those in need.
 I thought we could start a tradition and do a shoebox for a child.  I decided to buy things for a little boy.  We never buy boy stuff so it was fun! 
  

 Kagen did such a good job packing the box, with Daddy's help.


 We took the box to a local store to drop it off. If you have a chance check out Tyler Consignment Warehouse, they have some really great things!! 


Tonight, our church had their Thanksgiving dinner.  We ate lots of yummy food and Kagen had a blast running around with the bigger kids.


I can't believe next week is Thanksgiving.  This year has gone by so fast!  I am so excited about spending time with our families.  That's my favorite part about the holidays!!!  And all the food too.
