Tis the season


This just crossed my mind: Are we doing the $10 gift exchange this year?

Because if not, then I was thinking maybe instead we can use that $20 per couple and put it towards a family in need instead. Between the 6 families, we'd have at least $120 (the snegirev kids may want to participate so that would up the amount) that could go towards food, toys, etc for a less fortunate family.

It's just a thought. I don't want to guilt anyone into it. The $10 exchange is fun to do and if we still want to do it I can write out the names to be drawn before Hanna & Joe head to Hawaii. Can you tell I'm itching to shop even though I've been told NOT to spend money...hehehe...but I can get away with it if it's for the family christmas exchange or a needy family!

So mama jane called and voted that we give to a family in need. That's where my vote goes too :)

Alright, sounds good. I'm pretty sure that the sneglets will be on board as well. I'll ask the bishop to let us know of a family in need and we'll go from there!
