Toy Drive 2011

We received $200 in monetary donations, and approx 25 toys donated to our Gifts From Gavin Toy Drive this year! I just finished our order from the Charity Mattel catalog and we were able to get so many toys...8 baby rattles, 8 ring stacks, 4 block sets, 2 shape sorters, 2 baby dolls, 6 mini magna doodles, 3 Dora microphones, 6 Disney princess Barbies, 14 Disney Princess play sets, 6 Batman action figures, and 36 matchbox cars! That's 95 toys!!!! So we collected 120 toys total!!! AMAZING!!! I tried to divide the resources evenly between baby toys, and girl and boy toys. I'm SO excited for the toys to get here so we can take them to the hospital! Its going to be awesome.

Thank you, thank you, thank you SO much for your donations! This is so very special to our family to be able to help the kids at the hospital, and to honor Gavin's life at the same time. I will post pictures of the toys in the next week or so!
