Happy Birthday Brayden!


This year November 26th, Brayden's Birthday, and Thanksgiving fell on the same day. So in memory of him, we wanted to be able to be there for the children and families that were not able to be at home for the holidays.
A little over a year ago my mother-in-law, Brayden's GG, decided to start making blankets in memory of him to give to local hospitals. The whole family got involved and the word spread quickly. We received many blankets, toys, and donations to give to children and their families. The response was overwhelming and wonderful.

So on November 26th it was arranged to give our donations to the Childrens' Hospital in Birmingham. Each blanket came with card.


We packed up the car and heading towards the hospital!

The toys and blankets will be distributed over the next few weeks. Here is a picture of all of us and the wonderful ladies that came in on Thanksgiving to accept our donations.




Hopefully we will be able to continue this project for years to come and make a difference in the lives of others that have children that are in the hospital and need encouragement to keep going to make it through each day.
