To St. Lukes Hospital

After Stand N Deliver we drove to St. Luke's Hospital in Boise to deliver our Halloween box to the Pediatric unit. Max fell asleep during the drive, so when we arrived at the hospital, Justin and I had quite the task of getting the box up to the 4th floor without dropping the box (or more importantly Max!!).
Once again, Justin came through shining like a gem, and was able to mostly carry the goods for us. It was SO FUN taking our box to the ladies at the reception desk. (They don't allow you to deliver to the children personally). They were so cute with the boys and so grateful for our little donation.
The best part was filling out the donation information sheet...and being able to offer our box of treats in memory of Jacob and Oakley. It's just a small way to celebrate their lives and it makes us feel so good to do it.

Justin skipped out to the car, and exclaimed, "That was so fun Mom!" And it really was so much fun!

That is awesome! And the goody basket looks so cute. What a fun thing to do as a family, and a great way to teach service.
