We were able to get 45 large Thanksgiving meals from Farm Fresh (www.farmfresh.com) to give out to the families. Inside the "Thanksgiving Meal Box":
14-16lb. Butterball Turkey
2 lbs of Mashed Potatoes
2 lbs of either corn or green beans
2 lbs of stuffing
2 Pies
Cranberry sauce
All the families had to put it in the oven for an hour and then they could have a nice festive meal. Many of the families chose to spice up their Turkeys to their liking. Which was very cool.
Many of these same families are probably going to need help for Christmas. Fret not Jinxie. I'm already thinking about what we can do to help without getting into financial issues doing it.

Just sticking it in there so I can click on it real easy. Don't mind me.
Moving right along.....
There was 5 large meals in addition that were given to the Security forces at the front gates of Langley AFB, Naval Air Station Norfolk, Ft. Monroe, and one to Portsmouth Naval Hospital. The guys and gals at the gates hardly ever get to have anything. Some of the guys were pulling an 18 hour shift to allow some of the married guys the opportunity to stay home with their families. Could MoJo say "NO" to that? I think not. Hehe!
smiling as I read this. You all are too much! ...in the best way, of course :o)
Happy holidays to all.
