2016 IN REVIEW - PART TWO

There was just so much greatness this past year, we had to have two blog posts to be able to get it all in! Yesterday, we highlighted the best posts from our Facebook and Instagram pages. Today, we will be turning the spotlight onto the blog and our Pinterest page and counting down the five most popular blog posts and five most popular pins, respectively.

However, before we do that, we would like to share a few photos with you from one of the big highlights of our year, The Polar Express event we held for families in need in Northwest Arkansas.

We partnered with LifeSource in Fayetteville to give over 40 families with over 80 children a memorable Christmas experience. The night included hot chocolate & popcorn, a  reading of the classic story of The Polar Express, a traditional Christmas meal, music, gifts each child, and a visit from Santa himself!

Each family was also given a basket of food items, a frozen chicken, and a frozen turkey to make sure they had a good Christmas meal. It was truly a magical night that could not have happened if not for our fantastic sponsors, and we would like to take one last opportunity to thank them and all of the wonderful volunteers that made this night possible.
