This evening for small group we went to Target and packed some boxes for Operation Christmas Child. It was fun. Our girl got some pens, colored pencils, paper, jewelery, a purse, socks, a hat, some gloves, and some candy. The boy got some matchbox cars, legos, a baseball, and candy. They also both got some hygiene items. It's always fun seeing what deals you can find (that are still small enough to fit in the box.)
Then I found out another friend is in the hospital from a car accident. :( She's not sure how bad it is yet, but she's been texting me a little bit so that's good.
