Operation Gratitude was amazing today. So many wonderful took the time to lend their support. Even Kathy Ireland was there, who I have to admit I’ve had a crush on for a long time. Its nice to know that even in a time when things are hard people still care about others, especially our troops.

Good recommendations! And even if you dont have any money to spare, you can still visit AmericaSupportsYou.mil and send a holiday greeting to the troops.

I usually take a bunch of toys down to our local Service Recruiting Area (all 4 branches represented) and ask that they be given to children whose parents are fighting overseas.

For those of you in the greater Houston area, it’s located off of OST and Fannin, right near Reliant Stadium.

I’ve been volunteering with Operation Gratitude since the early days. This is a wonderful volunteer run organization.
This is where you see all the beautiful Americans come out and do good for our military.
I’ll be there this weekend, working away and loving every minute of it.

Just a reminder to everyone: If you have a few spare bucks, Toys for Tots is running low this year. They’ve had to close some distribution spots due to lack of interest and money. Please donate a couple of new, unwrapped toys if you can. Bringing a smile to the face of a needy child who could use a bit of joy feels great! (And you might meet a really hot Marine, too.)
