Thank You!

After a full night of sleep, we are ready to start off our week. Before we can do that, we would like to thank everyone who helped in some manner to make our ALS Charity Crop a huge success this past weekend. Whether you made a donation online, provided a raffle item, helped me stuff goody bags prior to the event, or stayed up late so I may take a nap during the crop. Or you cropped one day or all weekend, each and everyone of you deserves a great big mommy hug for your time, support and encouragement of this event. This event is done in memory of our family members we have lost to ALS. We are very thankful we are able to raise funds and awareness to help those currently living with ALS. Our team goal this year was $3000. Thanks to all of you, we have exceeded this goal we have raised $7000. We are truly amazed by the generosity of our friends and family. This only encourages us to continue and we hope to see you all again at our May 16th-17th, 2014 Charity Crop at Calvary Church.
