Jerseys Fundraiser

Sunday we had our March of Dimes fundraiser at Jerseys in Hoffman Estates. Kristina and Brandon are friends with the owner. Ironically both of their kids were in the NICU and thats how they met. Gregg and Paige were SO very generous and donated all of the food money back to our team and we were able to raise $2,127!!! It was a huge success and everyone was so generous for this great cause! Here is Kristina and I:)

Thanks Grandma and papa for coming to support our team!!! And congrats on being the big silent auction winners of the night:)

Colin and his friend Jake

Kaitlyn guarded this Lia Sophia girls butterfly necklace in the silent auction. Grandma bid on it for her....but when someone came and wrote their name and outbid my mom tears filled in K's eyes....the very sweet lady scratched her name off and said she couldn't disappoint Kaitlyn. How sweet but I told her not to do that!!! Kaitlyn ended up winning the adorable necklace and was very happy. Grandma took Colin to Toys R Us the next day to be fair:) We had a great time and it was a huge success!! If you ever are in the Hoffman Estates area check out Jerseys...they have the best pizza!!! Our walk is this Sunday at 9am. Its a 6.2 mile walk thru downtown Chicago...they are forecasting rain so please pray that its not stormy!! The walk goes on rain or shine!
