Operation Gobble Gobble

For the past two years, a group of people from our church has put together meal bags for families who need them during the Thanksgiving season. After we put them together, we go and deliver them....

The name: Operation Gobble Gobble. Better known as: O.G.G. =)

 This year was so much fun! The Sunday we put the bags together, was the Sunday before my birthday. My sneaky mom had an email sent out to the whole church asking (whoever wanted to) people to secretly bring a card for me and put it in a basket that was in the fellowship hall.

They presented it to me after lunch and before the O.G.G. festivities began...



You knew about this Lur?!?!

It was kinda awkward having people staring at me and singing "Happy Birthday."

Awww! Thanks, mom!


These little guys were put together by my grandmother and mom. :)

Isn't he the cutest ever?!? He was created by mom. He was a HUGE hit!


Then it was time to decorate the bags that the groceries would go in...


Whoever wanted to could make something out of construction paper....
 
....or color a picture....
 
...to go on the front of the paper bags.

What a fun day it was!!! =)
