Christmas Countdown: Groceries for Good

Oddly enough, today's advent calendar activity was a trip to the grocery store.

Peeper and I bought groceries for the family that our MOMS Club has "adopted" for the holidays, through the Salvation Army.

In addition to provided gifts for the kids (in this case, just one kid, a five year old girl, as luck would have it), we are also asked to provide Christmas dinner and some other groceries.

Thanks to generous donations from our members, we were able to give the little girl four toys that she'd asked for, a filled stocking, an outfit with a matching hair bow (made by one of our members). For her mom, we had a 31 backpack purse and scarf (made by the same member), as well as some gift wrapping material and the groceries.

Well done, ladies!
