Special thanks to Tina for bringing the paint to keep the little ones (okay, Mya) occupied! Tell Beth her ugly picture is on the fridge! ;-)

Corn Hole Success and Donations

I just want to report that the corn hole tournament was a success! After paying out for the winners of the tournament, we raised $175.00 to purchase items from the Homes Wish List! I was very pleased with the turn out Saturday, and I can’t Thank Jeff and Shirley enough for bringing all their “corn hole” friends! We had 9 teams in total and everyone had a great time! I’ll post a few pictures once I get them downloaded. I also want to send a big Thank You to Mom and Tina for bringing all the goodies to sell at the tournament! The fried apple pies were a huge hit!

We continue to get donations from various people. I don’t think we’re going to have a problem getting a truck load! Tara brought a trunk full of items today, and I received more items this past Saturday at the tournament. Now the big job will be to sort through everything so that it’s more organized for the Home. So far we have items ranging from bath items, to clothes, to toys, to microwaves and pencils and books! Everyone has really come through with the donations!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Corn Hole Tournament

It's on! We're having a cornhold tournament at the house on August 22nd at 5:00 pm EST. $10 per person to play. $5.00 from each entry fee will go toward purchasing items from the Home's Wish List. The rest will be split for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place corn hole winners. We'll also have hotdogs and cokes for sell. Proceeds from the food sales will go toward the Wish List as well. Let me know if you would like to sign up to play!

Also, I did have one person that asked to make a donation toward our Home "bank". If you have people that would like to help, but don't want to play cornhole, or have anything at home to go in the truck load, we can take any money given and put it in the pot for the shopping trip. I do ask that you keep up with who gives what since I would like to send a little Thank You note to everyone that helped us.

Hope to see you on the 22nd!
