This is how mistletoe looks in the trees. (For all our friends/family in Utah who have never seen it!)
We clipped it into smaller pieces and put ribbons on it.
The kids went door to door and had a roadside mistletoe stand in our neighborhood. They were soooo excited about earning money and helping someone else.
After three weeks of hard work, we totalled up our money and went shopping! The kids loved choosing presents/clothes for our special delivery, which was done on Christmas Eve. Shan ran the presents up to the door and when he got back to the escape vehicle, he said, "Operation Mistletoe complete!" and everyone giggled. What a memorable Christmas we had.

What a fun thing to do. I've never really thought about where mistletoe comes from...
Good job everyone! What a wonderful way to bring the true meaning to Christmas.
Ingenious.
Love Mimi
