We’ve been working with Project LIfe here in Pattaya, Thailand which is an organization that provides for the children living in the slums. Most of their parents are drug addicts/sellers, are in jail for selling drugs or their mom’s work down in the bar area so they’re rarely home. Everyday the women of Project Life go to a different slum to clean wounds, cut fingernails, sing songs, play games, make crafts and provide a hot meal for the kids. This month is extra special with Christmas around the corner so we were able to give out Christmas gifts to each one of the children that came out. Three lucky children even got new bikes! It was so amazing to be a part of this <3

Bike givaway time! 🙂 The woman in the blue is Leanne. She’s the head hancho at Project Life. Originally from Kansas, she’s been in Thailand working here for the past 21 years. She’ll be moving back to the US within the next few months.

present time!
love it 🙂
This has been an amazing way to spend our Christmas season. I absolutely love seeing the kids faces light up as they laughed along to our ridiculous games or saw their new teddy bear to take home. That’s all for now…
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
