Single Soldier Project: Shopping

Phase II of our single Soldier project consisted of shopping for the items needed for our baskets using the funds donated by our Families for this project.  On shopping day, six ladies spent six hours going to six different stores to purchase items for 181 Soldiers. It was great fun and we can't wait to get baskets assembled for these heroes!

*One funny note ... when I told a friend we were shopping for single Soldiers, she said, "That's what I used to do before I met my (Soldier) husband!" ;)

Here is our group at Sam's Club where we made great progress toward getting yummy snacks for our Soldiers!
