Hello, Santa!

My Citrus Center Kiwanis club has a long and proud history of supporting the Florida Baptist Children's through financial gifts, summer cookouts and holiday parties. (just to name a few) This past Thursday, Skyler enjoyed her second visit to this wonderful, annual holiday party.

Although she had little interest in sitting on Santa's lap, she stood next to him and waved the entire time as he handed out gifts to the children. The above picture tells the story! Serving the Children of the World is our Kiwanis motto and I just love taking Skyler with me to the many volunteer events throughout our community.

That afternoon, Skyler got to play Santa's helper as we delivered Chrsitmas presents to a needy family through the Christmas Angel program at Highland's Grove Elementary school. Our dear friend, Maryl Richey, heads up this amazing program and it was great to come together to make the lives of less fortunate families more festive. We also enjoyed a nice visit in her guidance office and Skyler got attached to Maryl's Irish Bear before leaving! (above) Sorry, Papa....lol!
