December 16th-20th

Service Project: On Friday, we are visiting the Little Sisters of the Poor.  We would like to take a special gift for the people there.  We are making Christmas Tree ornaments from pasta wheels and sequence.
We are asking families to donate bags of pasta wheels or sequence.  Also, any individually wrapped candies would be greatly appreciated to make a treat bag for the people there as well.
Here is a picture of we would like to make:
