Here's Sarah & Kaylie!

Wrapping Gifts for a Cause

So yesterday sarah and i went up to the local outlet mall to wrap gifts to raise money for ACS - Relay for Life. We had 4 people stop in (one i dragged in from the bench outside our door) in the 3+ hours we were there...BUT the people that came in were incredibly generous....so now if Sarah can get $5 more dollars she will qualify for a t-shirt...and I still have to do my own fundraising but it is a little easier for me. well, i can drop into branches and see if i can get people to give me $5 a shot. that worked for me last year...

Today needs to be spent getting my own holiday decorating and presents on their way...

It was a nice experience although i had hopes for more people both wrapping and coming in to wrap.

Off to work on Christmas for us now.
