If you were wondering where your neighbor gift was... it's at our house!


We decided to change our neighbor gifts this year. We took the money we would have spent and took the kids shopping tonight and let them spend it on food to give to a local food drive.  They had fun choosing things- interesting what a kid thinks a family needs if they are low on food. (It's amazing how far money DOESN'T GO when you go shopping for groceries!) My son was fine with this "giving thing" as long as he didn't have to give up his blanket!

What a great idea! I just skipped neighbor gifts period. How good of you to donate to a food drive! You are teaching your kids the true spirit of Christmas!
