We had a chaotic, yet great Christmas Blitz! There were lots of kids, food, noise, and gifts. The night kicked off with everyone gathering together to eat. After dinner, we did a massive gift exchange. We had four different groups trading random gifts. During this time, each kid also had a chance to guess how much candy might be in three different jars. Jar #1 had 316 Jelly Beans and the closest guess was 317. Jar #2 had 777 Skittles. The closest guess was 780. Finally, Jar #3 has 828 M & Ms. The closest guess was 808. The winners, of course, got the candy!
Not only are our kids smart...they are also very generous. We had around 300 gifts brought that will be delivered to the Dorcas House. The night ended with a little music and a devotional on the true meaning of Christmas. Each student present was also given a gift to take home. It was a 31-day devotional book geared just for Middle Schoolers. Here are a few random pics from the night.
