Last night my daughter and I attended a community church "Holiday Feast". It was stressful and wonderful all in one. Stressful because I was on my own with a stroller, a two year old and my hands full of a huge gift basket I won! Luckily a kind man helped me with my packages out to the street where I called a taxi for a ride home.

The basket I won has this lovely hand sewn quilt in it that will be perfect on Sarah's bed. I plan to take a picture of her sleeping with the quilt on and send it in a nice thank you card to the church.

The dinner itself was well organized and SO yummy! The volunteers had gingerbread house kits available for the kids to put together while they waited for their meal. My daughter of course only wanted to eat the decoration candies while mom built the house!! But it was fun none the less.

This afternoon we're off to another community dinner put on by the local business association. It's at 1:30 so I'm hoping I can take my daughter on my lunch break and be back at work in reasonable time. Wish me luck!
