Ok. I think we ALL know what awesome holiday is coming up on the 25 of this month(Christmas)! And most people are SO exited about Santa and gifts and all that. I will admit that I am always exited for that too! But the best thing about chirstmas is giving. My friend Parker and Me will spend 6 hours going back and forth with people's inwanted toys(but still usuable) to a hospital. And also my family is getting presants and giving a family in downtown Salt Lake and they have 4 kids with a single mother and grandmother. I feel so bad for them. There kids are 2, 8, 11, 23. The 23 year old is disabled. It is sad but I have gave presants to strangers a few times and it feels great!
Who are you giving presants to this year?

we always do the 12 days of Christmas for a family in our ward, it's one of our family traditions. They're not big presents, mostly just treats that have to do with the theme for that night (seven swans a-swimming we do blue finger jell-o with oragami swans on top, that kind of thing). It's really fun and we keep our identity a secret so I feel a little bit like a super hero.
That sounds SOOO fun! I love doing stuff without people knowing! That is what makes it fun!
we've adopted a family in the ward and we're gonna try the 12 days thing. i also am giving a present to your parents...but i don't know what yet.
we adopted a family at work that is originaly from Burma and they lived in a refugee camp in Thailand for 13 years. They have been in the US for about 7 months. There are 5 kids that range in age from 11 to 3 months and the mom and dad. It's not easy asking for money but it's so worth it when we deliver a ton of presents!
Aunt Peggy and Gym that is awesome! That sounds fun! Peg I feel bad for that family because 5 kids and they keep moving!?! Gym, that is awesome that you give a family 12 gifts on 12 days!
