| Secret Santa Helpers from 2010! |
I have been thinking a lot lately about our successful Secret Santa mission last year. You guys were AWESOME!!! So, I was thinking that we would try our hand at it AGAIN this year, but start a little earlier. HOW 'BOUT JULY/AUGUST?! Last year we were able to surprise 3 families (with only a week or two to get the drive going as it was last minute), and the funny thing is that we only set out to surprise ONE family! We were/are soooooo blessed! IT WAS SUCH AN AWESOME FEELING! I love being able to GIVE! It was just an awesome experience for my whole family!
Anyway, I just wanted to put it out there that we will be doing it again this year. I know that clearance sales are coming up pretty soon (but I also know school shopping is upon us too), so I just wanted to put it out there that we are doing this JUST in case you might come across something super duper inexpensive that you may want to donate to our cause.
I have yet to pick out our family. I kinda want to wait until a little closer to the holidays to find that perfect family again, but rest assured that we WILL be doing it again. (I am secretly going to pick out four families, just in case). I hope it's not asking too much, but maybe JUST maybe WE CAN DO FOUR FAMILIES THIS YEAR! Wouldn't that be AWESOME?!!!
Just kick the idea around a bit and see what you think. I will be in touch here soon with details of how we could use some help in this, if you need any ideas.
Thanks to you all! Seriously, I wanna cry here just thinking about how you all came through last year. IT WAS SOOO STINKIN' AWESOME!!!! ☺
Thanks guys!

P.S. I have already started. I picked up some Hamburger Helper yesterday at Albertsons for dirt cheap for this. I also picked up some toys last month at THE toy sale at Target.
