Merry Christmas Chris and Angelle!


Merry, Merry Christmas Chris and Angelle! As you know, for Christmas this year we really wanted to focus on the true meaning of this beautiful season. We wanted to do service for others... or rather, I wanted Todd to do service for others. So, consider yourselves blessed when we tell you that we did this service in YOUR name. For you this Christmas, Todd has performed many acts of service... and they are all in honor of you. I can't imagine how you must feel right now... shocked...speechless...verclemped...honored...so happy words will not come to you. It's OK... just sit back, relax and enjoy all these pictures we have put together to document this service (again, done in your name... by Todd)
Touching up the paint job on the neighbor's car. I'm sure they will be so surprised when they see what kind thing we have done for them!

Todd planted flowers in the neighbor's yard...

Don't worry... he watered them too!

Todd sprayed weed killer on the weeds at the house across the street

He cut down a tree at our neighbor's house that has needed to go for quite some time. I'm sure they will appreciate it in the long run!
This one took a long time to cut! They will probably be very surprised on Christmas morning!
Todd emptied the old lady across the streets poopie diapers...
Delivered cookies to hungry kids...
Made some hungry kids dinner... (service does count even when it's for your own kids)
Emptied lots of trash... Mowing the neighbor's lawn... uphill... on a cool 60 degree Christmas Eve. The boys decided to help out too... Andrew has the weed wacker and Justin is digging weeds.
No task is too tough when done in the name of Chris and Angelle's Christmas.
Todd refused to leave even one leaf untouched...
Todd wanted to quit... and then he remembered that this is what is Christmas is all about... at least this is what Christmas will be all about for Chris and Angelle. Merry Christmas!
