Wow! The church was absolutely packed this morning with packers for Feed My Starving Children. It was awesome! And I must say - we kicked butt! We ended up NOT finding our church group until after the event was over, so we packed with a father/son team from Shakopee, a very quiet woman from Shakopee who knew the father/son team and another father/son duo from Burnsville. I spent my second day also sealing rice packets with the seven year old from B'ville using a sealer that worked some of the time while his dad packed boxes (and helped me seal while his son drew on the paper table covering and otherwise amused himself - it must be hard to be seven and volunteer for two straight hours!). When it was all said and done - we had packed 1,096 boxes which were filled with 236,736 meals. Enough food to feed 649 children one meal a day for a year. More than the day before! Here's a look at my favorite workers:
