Some Christmas spirit ...

Clint and I hosted a Christmas party this year at our house. We were going to have an ugly Christmas sweater party ... but we decided instead of people investing money into a stuipid sweater that would only be worn the following year when we threw the party again ... that we would put that money to good use. So ... instead of having the ugly Christmas sweater party ... we asked everyone to bring a toy ... and we were gonna donate them to the "Toys For Tots" charity. There are so many children out there that need to feel special on Christmas morning ... and Clint and I wanted to help out. We even took our kids to the store ... and had them each buy a present to add to the "toy drive" that Clint and I had going on. The party was on December 17th ... and we had people start to show up around 6:30 to 7:00ish. I made a bunch of Mexican food ... and other people brought some yummy food to go along with it. It was a great night ... And we had many "cups full of cheer" through out the night. Thanks to everyone that came ... And everyone that brought a toy to donate to Toys For Tots. Here is the large box of toys that Clint and I ... along with the 3 amigos dropped off at the Toys For Tots building that is located down on 6th street and Wakarusa. It was a rewarding feeling to know ... that we blessed some child ... somewhere in Douglas County ... with a smile on Christmas morning. We will definately make this an annual party at our house! Nothing says Christmas more than toys ... and ... well ... alot of liquor. *wink*
