Yesterday was our Packing Party for the Statewide Swimsuit and Towel Drive. The pile of towels was quite daunting (if I had the camera I'd upload some pics...you'll just have to look for them on facebook or our next BH newsletter), but somehow they all got packaged! Not to say that we're done - we still have some to do to finish up, hopefully by the end of this week. We had a wonderful workforce of volunteers who helped us throughout the day. I ended up riding back to Montgomery with Heather and Adam with bags of unfinished towels (still waiting to be embroidered with kids' names). Heather's going to take me back to Opelika tomorrow.
Today is my brother Hayden's 22nd birthday - yay, Hayden! I thought of him yesterday b/c there was at least one towel for a Hayden (and one for a Haydren - yes, we checked - we had to do a doubletake on a lot of names!). Here are five great things about Hayden - he has brown eyes like me (sorry Cuyler and MacLaren - brown eyes are just cuter), he is a musical genius, he looks like Harry Potter, he is happily married to a great girl (yay for sisters-in-law) and they are going to make adorable babies one day (hopefully girls that I can dress up!), and he's funny. Well, he's a Jones - that goes without saying. Happy Trails Hayden! I love you! lol
