Thank you again to everyone who donated. Something super cute that I found while drawing the prize winners’ names is this:

I guess Caylin wanted in on all of the cool prizes, too. LOL! She is super sneaky, but totally sweet. She won a picnic outside. ;) 
Oh and here is another something sweet:

Jack says “Hi!” and “Thank you for donating,” too! ;)

This fundraiser was a big success and I couldn’t have done it without your help so thank you again – a million times! Now – here’s a fair warning for you … put aside a bit of money each week because I am going to have an ever BIGGER fundraiser during the Summer for the cause that has now become even closer to my heart – the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. The “Walk for a Cure” is going to be this Fall and of course my family and I will be walking, not only for our daughter, but for the countless other children and families facing what we are newly facing because of Type 1 Diabetes. I have a bunch up my sleeve for this fundraiser and I’m about to hit the ground running on it soon to organize it all and get a HUGE amount of awesome prizes that you can win. My goal is going to be (brace yourself) $10,000. Yes, you read that right, LOL. I’m going BIG or going home for this one. It means too much to me. I’d raise a million dollars if I could, but obviously THAT isn’t realistic so I’m going a tad bit smaller with my goal. ;) Anyway, more about that at a later date once I get all of my ducks in a row and get going on it. 
Thank you again SO much. You are all wonderful and more than anything your thoughts, words of encouragement for my Mom, sharing your stories with me about those who you love and know with MS and prayers have lifted me up so much. 
God bless you all! Oh, and if your name was drawn above – click on the envelope in my sidebar and shoot me an email with your information (email & address) and I will get back in touch with you about your prize!
Happy Friday to you all! I’ll be back soon with more, of course! :-D
