Project #50


On Wednesday, Dec. 3, the 8th grade girls made another wonderful trip to Kids First Awareness Center in Alabaster. This time our goal was to provide homework assistance, a Bible story and share homemade Christmas cookies.

The afternoon started out great with some shared tumbling techniques and a few stunts by the Thompson cheerleaders. All of the students had a great time showing off their skills and cheering for each other!

Next, in keeping with Mrs. Hawkins rules, we spent time doing homework and reading books together. We shared a Christmas Bible story and distributed our Christmas cookies--everyone enjoyed the cookies decorated by the hands of our 8th grade girls--they were stunning!!



As always, the fellowship was sweet and we are already counting the days until we return. Project 51 maybe finished, but our relationship with Kids First will go on. Andrew Wash has joined us too. Thanks to Andrew's genuis, we hope to bring the Westwood student drama team with us in January, 2009!!
Stay tuned for more updates about Kids First...next time we would be glad to take anyone along who might be interested. It's full of good times!!!

Saying "Andrew Wash is a Genius" is like saying "Water is Wet"; it's just assumed.
