A giant thank you to all of you who joined as we teamed up with One Heart Ministries for our December event, delivering Christmas gifts to the disabled people in our community. I know things were a little crazy at first (finding gifts, wrapping gifts, labeling gifts....) but I think it was so worth the effort! The disabled individuals who were the receipients of the gifts were so thankful and excited to not only get some gifts, but to see the new faces of people who cared enough to bring them. Thank you to all of the drivers who drove all over the city looking for the homes to deliver the gifts to! And Co-pilots, hopefully you all did a better job of reading the maps for your driver than I did for mine!! (You rock Myra!!) And I have to admit, I was super excited to have my brother, Greg, on my list to deliver to! He was soooooo excited!!!!! For a little while, I didn't think he was going to let us leave! I even had to change a lightbulb for him before we could go!! Heehee!! But I think we need to take the time to give out one special award for this event! The award is "I'm a Trooper!!" and it goes out to Jason Hoeppner who not only showed up with three small children, let them help him wrap and organize (while showing an amazing amount of patience!) but then he had to deliver the gifts on his own with the kids!! No co-pilot!! And he did it!!! Way to go Jason!!! You have totally earned this award!! :)
