Does anyone have any change for this child?

For some reason Mckenna decided to ask for "pennies for the Poor?" Maybe it was because we were deciding what charity we were going to give to this year instead of doing our "Santa's Elves." We decided that there might be a family or families that might need to have a holiday more than the fun that we do for someone who we know.

So the kids provided money and helped go shopping for 'Coin's for Kids'. The boys also packed for 'Toy's for Tots,' and Mckenna and Kyler went to Christmas parties where we helped the local shelter by bringing food cans and Mckenna brought a few hats I had made for the kids of the shelter. We also were going to serve Christmas Day dinner, but they didn't need our help since they already had a fill of helpers. Bummer, that is something Matt and I have wanted to do with our kids for a long time, but never figuared out how to find out about it.

Here is our little version of the Salvation Army bell ringer!

But I don't think that they pose for the camera do they? She does look cute though!
