    Or should I say Thanksgiving Where we give thanks for what we have and appreciate all the little things we may take for granted sometimes.

    In that spirit, I went and delivered 12 shelter baskets to the shelter this morning in time for next weekend's day of thanks

    My little monkey aka Jack who is 8, had me up at 6 am, so I assembled the baskets, drove the hour drive to the shelter and had them delivered by 11!

    Here is what I put in them:





    Here is the contents of one basket:





    Here is how they looked in the basket:





    Here is how all 12 looked before wrapping:



    Here is how one looked wrapped:





    Here is how they all looked wrapped:



    Here is the thank you card I was given by the Shelter when I arrived with this round of baskets:





    Many thanks to all those who have donated coupons towards my shelter stash and a special shout out to cmontario who sent me products for my shelter stash which I included in this round! Everyone's help has allowed me to continue to help others, and I know the shelter is grateful as am I for the support!

    Thanks again everyone for making SC a great place to be!

    Happy Saturday Everyone and Happy Early Thanksgiving!

    What a kind and generous person you are Eriluo . I am greatly touched and I am sure the shelter and all the ladies there are also. Your pictures brought tears to my eyes.

    Again, pouring your heart out to others-a wonderful thing!

    Do you ever get the baskets back from them or can they find a use for them? With all the deliveries you make, they may end up with a storage room full of them!!!

    I am hopeful that the baskets go with the residents of the shelter when the leave for their new homes. The shelter has mentioned yet about any excess baskets, so I am hopeful that they are taken by the women leaving the shelter to start a new life!
