The Big Give

Saturday we participated with our church on a thing called "The Big Give." Each small group was given an amount of money to go out into the community and bless people with it. Our class split into 2 groups and the group Matt and I were with went to an assisted living home. We took a part of the money and bought gift certificates for the staff to get manicures. We took the rest and bought cake and party stuff and had a party after we played bingo with the residents. Some couples from our class doing a little shopping before heading to the assisted living home.
This was the group playing Bingo. One of the girls in our class called Bingo numbers for an hour straight. It was great. Those folks are serious about some bingo.

Matt was a real hit with the ladies. Notice how the rest of the place had cleared out behind them ( I think it was nap time) well, I thought I was going to have to come back and get Matt later on. We just love old people--they are awesome!
