Ronald McDonald House Holiday Party

Yesterday, December 5th was the Annual RMH Holiday Party and I got to help out!  I also brought Spencer with me.  I was not sure what to expect because I had never been to anything like this before.  We got there at 9am to help set up.  Then we we put in charge of making popcorn.  No, we were not given the bags you put in a microwave, push numbers and then open the bag.  We made it with a mini movie popcorn maker!  Figuring out how to work it was fun! (haha) but luckily someone was there to help.

We were next to the Hot Dog stand!

We couldn't keep up with everyone!  Each batch made about 4-5 bags, but there was a big demand for our, and I quote, "Greatest popcorn in the WORLD!"  But we got the hang out it...you could say we are professional popcorn makers now.  :)
There were a LOT more people there than I had ever imagined.  Even Ronald McDonald showed up!  They got to make ginger bread houses (with really awesome decorations), crafts, get their face painter, balloon animals, etc.  It was awesome to be apart of something for the residents (past and present) of the RMH.  And each kid who was there got a gift.  They were all walking around with these really big white boxes but I have no idea what was in them, probably something awesome.  And then siblings I believe got a goodie bag.  And they have legit stuff in them.  ;)
