The story behind the flashback friday story

December 26, 2003 was The First Annual Goodwill Day

Instead of the siblings exchanging christmas gifts we exchanged a goodwill outfit.

Instead of the siblings giving the parents gifts we did "goodwill" (which turned into 10 hours of hard labort/service)

Instead of the parents giving the siblings gifts they watched the grandchildren while the siblings went out on a date in the goodwill outfits.

Sidenotes:
  • It was John's first exposure to the Young family and he still married Alice
  • Ruth purchased out my outfit
  • I purchased out Megan's outfit (what a find huh?)
  • I had to crimp my hair to trake away from the fact that I wasnt purposefully wearing an 80's prom gown
  • We never had a Second Annual Goodwill Day
