Cancer Sucks!

We have a friend who was diagnosed about a year ago with 3 brain tumors. The treatments and therapies have left their savings pretty much depleted, so a group of people held a fundraiser for him yesterday. There was food, music, a cake auction, raffle prizes and a performance from ComedySportz. The organizers did an incredible job! It was really heartwarming to see how many people came out to help this family.

Randy won a fruit basket and a necklace (he looks fabulous in it!) and I won a Brewer's basket with 10 bobble heads (I'm thrilled to now have a Yount to go with my Molitor!), 3 shirts, 2 hats, a cooler, a pennant, and a ton of Brewer's baseball cards. I also won a wonderful Red Velvet cake. Yum!

The event was held at a bowling alley and Jameson had a blast! He explored every inch of the place. Jackson was not happy to be there. He kept telling me everything was too loud. By the end, he was doing pretty well, but he needed to keep a fleece winter hat on his head through the whole event. He got some funny looks, but hey, I'm game for whatever it takes. Never mind that it was 70+ degrees yesterday.

We went to the ped this morning to get J's booster flu shot. He took it like a pro and immediately asked for his sticker. lol Pavlov's theory can also be proven with little boys and stickers.

Object du Jour: A toy phone and the sticker.
