Well its that time a year again, or at least getting there. So im starting to plan out this years Toy Drive. It's our 4th year for organizing this and we usually donate to Toys 4 Tots and Spark of Love. This year we'll go ahead and rotate back to Toys 4 Tots again. I know this year has been tough for all of us with this terrible economy, but lets not make the kids suffer. Lets see if we can band together and do our part.
