Slipper drive update...

The "official" end date for Lilly's slipper drive is Wednesday, though I'm sure we will still be collecting as the weeks progress.
Total as of today: 1158 pairs
One thing's for certain... Hannah would be proud! She'd be wearing a pink pair for sure.
This photo doesn't even capture all of the slippers... more bags and boxes are around the house that have made the total count but haven't made it to the "slipper room."
It's a good thing no one has come for a visit... we would have some serious slippers to move out of this guest room. So the next step... sorting, packaging, labeling... we can't just give them to the hospital like this! Oh no, we must make each one look like a present to bring the biggest smile we can to each child. 
Warm hearts, warm feet. :)
Lilly is pleased and quite overwhelmed with the response. When all of this started, I asked her what would make the slipper drive a success. She said... "100 pairs."
