YMCA Holiday Party

Tonight was the annual Holiday Party for the YMCA teens. It was a fabulous event this year with 120+ kids from all over Atlanta joining the fun.

The boys and I tagged along with Wesley for the festivities this year, and we were amazed at what we saw.


The teens were asked to bring supplies to pack shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child. Wesley committed to filling 500 boxes but really thought the goal was too high.

I guess the teens showed him because they filled 600!!!!! There was hardly room for all of them in Wesley’s trailer! What a blessing!

It is so great to see the kids coming together to have fun and to help out those who are less fortunate. And I love that my boys get to see the serving attitude of these teens at such a young age!


600 boxes packed up and ready to send to those needing a little help this holiday season!

Jackson followed Wesley around after the event cleaning up and shining his orange flashlight. I have NO idea where he found this thing!!
