wrapped,tagged, & almost delivered

I am wrapping up our little service project tonight! Have I mentioned how excited I am about this?

Look what I received in the mail today. Four pairs of brand new tennis shoes. This wonderful delivery completed our back to school care packages. A huge shout out & thank you to Kim M.. You ROCK Kim!















Each child will receive their own bag of goodies! I had fun creating little tags for each bag. Nothing fancy...all the supplies used to create the tags came out of my scrap stash. One of my goals after purging my scrapbook room this year was to use my scraps more. So far so good.















I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am for these bags( AND a box of school supplies, a backpack filled with school supplies, two boxes of food, one box of toiletries, two bags of gently used boy clothes, & $100 worth of Wal*Mart gift cards) to be delivered tomorrow.

Thank you to each & every one of you who contributed, large & small. Every item made this little service project come together & PERFECT. Together, we made a HUGE difference in this little family's life.

Have a happy & safe Labor Day weekend.
Regular scheduled posts coming soon :-)!

The tags are soooo cute! What kid wouldn't want something with a tag with their name on it like that!!! Thank you so much for the opportunity to help! I'm sure it will be an amazing experience delivering all of the goodies! Good job, Raimi!
