After we had a big breakfast at Jim's, each person was given an envelope with $2.15 in it. We all headed to the dollar store, where we had the choice to spend our money on two things for ourselves, one thing for ourselves and one thing for the women's shelter, or two things for the women's shelter. My mom just left her trunk open with a box in it while people were coming out of the store and if you had something for the shelter you could drop it in the box.
Here's my cute momma:
It was really interesting to be able to watch my siblings help their children make choices since I didn't have Carter and Shane with me at the reunion. They are all great examples to me.

Conversation overheard (bewtween a brother of mine and his daughter -- NOT the ones pictured above):
Daughter (admiring a box of fake nails almost reverently):
OOOOOooooooh! These are so pretty!
Father:
For you or for the poor children?
Daughter (without pause and in cheerful voice):
For ME!!!
