jingle jingle jingle


yes...a quick pic of the kids, proudly donning the salvation army apron and bell outside a neighborhood grocery store for our one hour slot one sunday afternoon! we were amazed by the generosity of those who chose to fill the red bucket. hampton proudly rang the bell and danced, while singing "jingle bells" over, and over, and over again. one lady, who had dropped someone off, apparently sat in a parking space and watched us for a long while. she later got out of her car, explaining that she had been watching us, and thought the kids were the cutest ever...and just had to give money! wow! our church offers the bell ringing slots every year...and each year, it becomes more and more meaningful. we are so blessed!
