We had a wonderful Anniversary week!! Thank you so much to all of you that sent the sweetest cards, emails and wishes!!! We were surprised with this HUGE HUMAN Balloon from our good friends Keri and Jennifer!! Thank you ladies!!!
Lauren and Renee came by to join us for the festivities on Wednesday.....Lauren decided to make "CAKE"!!! HA!! I love it!! Renee even ended up "sorting" on her day OFF!!Jennifer's friends (us included!) held a surprise birthday party for her here on Saturday night....it was a Sock Monkey theme!!

Okay - serious business here.....our friend Tracy Shaffer has a friend that she is needing our prayers and help with....please read on for more information as well as click on the link to HER blog for updates on this little guy!!!
Michael Yell, age 9, going into 4th grade. Has Hodgkin's Disease.
Jennifer is his mom, she's a single mom, who had to quit her job to take care of him.
He has one sister named Katie.
We are going to have a 12x12 album. We need pages for general pictures, doctors visits, donations received, benefit dinner given, baseball, etc....
For everyone that donates 1 - 12x12 layout I will give them a "ticket" and if their number is drawn on Sunday they will win a prize for helping me out. If figured it was easier to do it this way then try to do a judging of all the pages. And, they get 1 ticket for each 12x12 page they do.
I will post the details on my blog too along with the pictures and people can email me and I can send them a picture too. And, they don't have to have a picture on the page to participate they can just leave it blank and we can add photos later.
