Operation Cookie Drop

   So as I had mentioned before in a previous blog entry, I have been trying to find volunteer opportunities with the extra time I have on my hands. After receiving an email about a cookie drive and asking for cookie donations, I decided not only will I bake cookies I will volunteer to help as well! Since I was one of many wives that didn't have kids and lived on base, I took the early shift.. 6:30!! Yeah I know it may not be too early for some of you, but for this woman.. thats early! Despite it being only twenty something degrees, I really enjoyed myself and couldn't believe all of the generous people that helped contribute by baking cookies and dropping them off. I have never seen so many cookies in my life! The whole operation turned out to be a huge success, Col. Seguin as well as Col. Ross even stopped by to see how the whole ordeal was coming along. The best part was delivering the cookies to people. I was assigned to deliver to the gate guards and the fire department. Everyone was really appreciative and it really made me feel good to know that I was a contribution to a great annual tradition here at CAFB. I can't wait for next year!
