SNOW-We are buried under 20 inches (plus) of snow here in PA. This may put a little slowing on the work that needs to be done at Grandmom's. Well, the dumpster is full...of snow! It may be another day yet before we can get the cars out. A snowmobile did make it around the driveway last night. I will give the Jeep a try later today. Jeff cleared it off last night, but it is covered again. The sun bouncing off of the surface of the snow & the dripping of the GIANT icicles is really beautiful. I hope you are all safe & warm with your roof & electric in tact. Staying home & safe sounds like the plan for the day!
PEPSI - Refresh Everything Grant If you click on the link in blue or go to www.refresheverything.com/ErinsDream, you can vote for Erin's Dream to win a grant of $250,000!! As of this morning, we had climbed from 156th place to 65th place in a little over 24 hours. That's amazing. Now....we are ranked among some big names with National following. So I am pleading for us all to shamelessly plug Erin's Dream for votes to win this grant! The best part, with a computer & internet connection, it doesn't cost anything to vote. With this grant we would be above our fundraising goal & we'd be on our way through phase 2 of Erin's Dream. This would be the start of plans for some even more amazingly dreamy resources for families who have lost a child. In fact, phase 2 is focused mostly on the KIDS! The dream would be granted & growing when we win! Vote vote vote. You can vote everyday.
EVENTS- March is really packed with events. Hopefully one suits your fancy & location & you can come out to see us.
First though, in February...FEBRUARY 25th is a great night to join us at the TEXAS ROADHOUSE in Royersford. Just by eating out, picking up take out or even purchasing gift cards to use another night, a portion of your bill will be donated to Erin's Dream. Personally I can't WAIT to have some steak...or ribs, I can't choose.
OK, now March...
March 6- We are having a vendor & craft fair at Lighthouse Christian Fellowship, Geryville Pike Pennsburg, PA from 10-3. We still can have some more vendors & crafters sign up to sell at the fair, but as for shoppers, visitors, browsers, raffle prize seekers (we have some great ones!) & friends - you get to come out for free! You can call me 215-272-6276 or email for info.
March 14th- WE'RE GOING TO NYC!! Thanks to Perkiomen Tours giving us an awesome deal on a bus for the day (& driver, I am not driving the tour bus, no worries), we are going to NYC. Tickets are available in the web store & are $50/person. Every age is welcome. We have some mother/daughter duos, mommies out for a break, daddies doing some shopping & friends just out to have fun so far. The tickets are obviously limited, so jump now. (I am sure you have cabin fever right now!)
March 28th - 3:00 in WILLIAMSPORT, PA at the Covenant Central Presbyterian Church, there will be a benefit "String Trios & Story Time" with music by Vivaldi, Schumann & Beethoven with stories for children of all ages". Tickets are $7 for adults, & $5 for kids over 2. They are up on the web store too. I can't wait! A great excuse to visit the stomping grounds of my college days!
