Fundraiser for Kenna's Kids

They have my heart

Whew..I made it through the event and everything went GREAT!! I am so thankful for the entire team who donated items, the girls who helped put together baskets, and help host it all weekend, along with our friends with the Rangers! We raised over $8,000 for an event we planned in 9 days!! I was very happy, and appreciated all the work everyone helped! It was very stressful week for me, and I have not worked that hard on something in a longg time! It was worth it! :) Here are some pictures from the event!

PHEWW..I'm glad thats over!! It was a great event, for people who really deserve it especially the Hughes! Jake made the All Star team, and had a very busy schedule so I ended up coming back to Orlando for some beach time, and vacation! Jake pitched pretty well in the 1 inning for All Star, and actually pitches tonight in Arkansas! I miss him like crazy, but have enjoyed my team at the beach with my family! There is no place like home, and I needed a break!!! 


of course I got burned the first day, so had to wear a long sleeve rest of weekend! 


I bought a one way flight, and not sure when i'll head back probably more towards the end of July. Jake is only home for about 9 days in July, and no point to go back to be alone. I am enjoying my time at the beach, and then will come back to Orlando next week for the rest of the time! It feels so good to be home, and can't wait to see everyone!
