An up coming event....

I have some very great friends!!! They are putting on an event for Amelia to help raise money for us to use when she goes to Minneapolis for a transplant. When that happens we will be running two house holds and if it is during the school year our family will once again be split apart as Marshall will not make the trip with us and he will have to stay here with Ty who will need to stay here to work in order for us to keep the Insurance, how ever sucky it is we still need it! Anyway below is a post with most of the info on it from one of my really good friends!! If you could pass it on that would be great too!

Amelia's Ball

Dear Potential Sponsors and Guests,

This year is a very critical year in the life of Amelia. Amelia Bennett was born with a very rare terminal illness called Fanconi Anemia. Due to this, she is a very sick 9 year old girl in need of our help. Amelia can longer be the active, courageous little girl she is because of her failing bone marrow which causes her platelets to be at dangerous levels. Everyone that meets this little angel can’t help but smile. I am honored to be one of the many people involved in helping Amelia achieve getting her Bone Marrow Transplant.

Amelia’s Ball an Amazing Fundraiser will be held Saturday June 27th 2009 7pm at, Culinaria: 1519 Carondelet Street New Orleans 70130, and will include:
• Jake Smith Band, Harvey Jesus and other local musicians
• Photo Booth
• Food donated by local area restaurants, including Voodoo BBQ and Grill, and Gumbo Shop
• Beer and wine
• Silent auction
• Tickets to attend are $40.00/person
• Dressy Casual Attire
We are also looking for additional donations and any other services.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions. If you are interested, please donate whatever you can to help. Thank you again for your support in helping Amelia have a fighting chance to ride her bike, play soccer, and go skating with her friends. You can learn more about Fanconi at www.fanconi.org.
