Monday, Monday

I'm going to have to wait to WrapUp my Weekend tomorrow, because I have bunches of pics to upload. It was a great weekend, with parties, parades, movies, and other exciting stuff. Which may or may not include celebrities.
Stay tuned!



So instead, today, I'm going to throw out a quick question/suggestion.
Do you and/or your family help others during the holiday? For example, choosing a child from an "Angel Tree" or something along those lines?
This is something that my family has done for several years and I feel very strongly about it. I feel that it teaches my children an important lesson about what Christmas AND Christianity are truly all about.
One year, one of the children we chose only asked for a blanket. That was all. That really got to all of us.
Usually, we choose a child from the Salvation Army tree. But this year, our church has a tree, and we chose two children from that tree.
I know that times are hard this year, but that makes it even more important to give what we can. It's not too late!

So....tell me what you do, or what you will be doing, this Christmas Season! =)
