Christmas 2008

Santa Came!

whew! this kid got some loot this year for sure! can we say SPOILED. yes please. Lucky for me , she is too young to care that most of her presents from santa came from garage sales and ebay. You know i love a bargain:) She was so overwhelmed, she couldnt decide what to play with first. The look of happiness and excitement on her face was the best Christmas present i could have ever wished for!

Shriners Party

She shoots.... SHE SCORES!!!!!>.. that's my gal!

We went to a Christmas party for all the kids that are apart of our local Wahabi Shriners. It was so neat to get to see all the other kids that they are helping there. They had food, games, prizes and games.. .and of course, Santa! SK had a blast... and since she never meets a kid she doesnt want to be instant friends with, she made lots a new buddies while there.

We thank the Shriners for ALL that they do and have done for Sarah Kathryn and for many many other children. Please, when thinking of a worthy place to donate to.. think of the Shriners... It costs millions a day for them to keep their hospitals going....and to provide FREE medical care to children w/ all types of disabilites. Trust me, there is no greater gift they could have given us, than that of walking away from Sk's surgery knowing we wouldnt be haunted for years by thousands and thousands of dollars of medical bills and debt. THANK YOU WAHIBI SHRINE !
