It's been a tale of two very different holidays for a Mobile family of four.
Thanksgiving ended tragically with a mobile home fire, but Christmas has ended joyfully, thanks to your generosity.
We first told you the story of Kim Garvie and her three daughters last month.
They lost everything they owned when their mobile home was destroyed by fire the day after Thanksgiving.
But since then, the park manager found a new mobile home for the family.
And they've received enough clothes, furniture and other donations to completely fill it.
Helen Lee, a family friend, said Garvie is "so thankful for every one of the companies and the individuals and the churches that have donated and made the Christmas. If it wasn't for them after the fire, they wouldn't have had a very good Christmas."
One of Garvie's children, 13 year old Bridget Hingle, said people "gave us porcelain dolls, and school supplies. Its been the best (Christmas) so far."
Garvie and her family are still living at the home of a relative, but they hope to move in the new mobile home by the new year.
