Shoebox for a Little Girl

Today Russell and I went to walmart and got all kinds of things to fill a shoebox for Operation Christmas Child. We do this every year. I always get so very emotional while we put them together. We sure had a good time picking out all of the little girls goodies!
Here's Russell with a book we picked out for her.

I am holding my favorite things we got her: Pinkalicious toys! Aren't they cute?
Even Belle wanted to help us!

Here it is all filled up for a precious girl. We do not know where this shoebox will go. We do not know how old she really is or know her name. But we will be praying for her every day because we know this one shoebox may make a difference in her life.
After the shoebox was filled, we had Baked Potato Chowder for dinner! Perfect for a Fall night!

Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God. Deuteronomy 16:17

Sweet gifts Meredith. I just know she will love them. My hubby and I did our shoebox today also.
We chose a little boy. We had a great time filling it with cars, dinasoars, footballs and all things BOY !
