1800 hours of service

The article in The Daily Herald. Such a handsome kid on the front page!! I might be a little biased.

Go Hobble Creek Hawks!! During the month of December the entire school had a goal to give 1000 hours of service. Each grade, from kindergarten to sixth, made and put together a specific item to donate to UVRMC's Pediatric Unit. Being on the student council gave Dylan & I the opportunity to deliver the boxes and boxes of items. They ranged from blankets to cards, and parent kits to Mr. Potato Head kits. There were literally 2 car loads of things. It was amazing to say the least. We all met at the school early Saturday morning to take it all over to the hospital. We weren't able to actually hand deliver it to patients but we gave it to the nurses there. As a parent, I love that Dylan and Braxton got to do this. And to top it off the goal of 1000 hours was put to shame by the actual amount of hours of service - 1800!!
The student council gathered around the boxes.

Starting to unload it all.

So awesome for them to be a part in that, and see it full circle. Such a well needed, great idea to help all of those sick kids with not much to do:)
