An Event To Change Your Life!

Last night we had the opportunity to attend Bob Eggett's Anything For A Friend Event.  It was amazing and then some!  The feeling that you felt was really honestly indescribable.  It showed really what the true meaning of Anything For A Friend really is.  We did not know many there, but you felt like you were amongst family.  They had an amazing turn out numbers were reporting around 1000+ they ran out of food and raised about $18K!!!  They had a kids corner that our little monkeys adored... Really did not see them most the night they were way too busy playing!
At the event Bob and Ingrid Eggett introduced the upcoming recipients Us, Cyndy Tangren, and Mila Garcia.  We had photo ops with all of the recipients from past and present, that came to support Bob and his family.  Please go read all of these amazing peoples stories.  I would tell you but Anything For A Friend's site tells it better.
It calmed alot questions that Cody and I have had in our minds.  We have been so very fortunate for all the many many people that have donated to our event.  Cody and I at times have not felt deserving of it.  But seeing what we saw in others eyes at the event calmed alot!  We know having that event and accepting the help really helps others.  From the event makes us just so much more excited for the many many events to come.  We have big dreams for Anything For A Friend just like they do.  We see our event as one of the first stepping stones of what is to come.  The next stepping stones will come in time but they will be close together and easy to acheive with our "friends".
We met some people that were friends of a past recipient, did not know Bob, besides his picture from the website, but were following their new "friends" and the last things they said to us as the left was: "See you on June 4th!"  Honestly that is what Anything For a Friend is really all about!
It was an amazing night, one I would not have missed for the world!  Can't wait for the many more to come!

Therapy

Well it has been quite a while since the last post.  Alot has happened, Cody continues to feel "all right?" he has felt a little pain with a slight fever and some major sleep insomnia but still great spirts and trying to stay active, seems to keep him feeling better.  Most days has to take a nap with Huston but over all doing good!  Just how we want it-I guess?-
Fundraising has gotten underway and is rolling really fast!  This week has been rough since the meeting on Wednesday I have gotten hardly any sleep! Always running up to my Mom's to talk about the fundraiser.  With AnyThing For A Friend by our sides we have and can accomplish alot.  Anything For A Friend had a "special" ran on them right after conference and has become ever more popular!  There was one "Angel" that watched the episode and then decided that she wanted to help, boy did she help!  Honestly can not even explain how many things she has donated!   Chantelle is a true example of a Daughter of God!  She told us she has been looking for someone to share this with and felt we really needed it.  Honestly we do not know eachother and have never met but she still has done so much for us and still finding more to do.  To see the many things donated by her company of Diviine Modestee go to Anything For A Friend and look under the donations.    We keep getting more and more people that are so willing to help us out.  There really are some great people in this world, I wish I could write about them all and thank them.  I hope I can one day.
Well my "therapy session" by what I mean is the starting the fundraising planning being fully engulfed in the planning and everything has been so very therapeutic!  It wipes out the negative completely.  It feels good to be able to do something and stay busy and feel like I have control of something.
We decided to change the 5k run to the same day as Cody's Mom was planning the benefit dinner.  With all the Cons it just seemed better to have an afternoon "fun run"  along side the dinner.   So it will be a great party, we are going to see people that we have not seen in the longest time.  Those people seem to be coming out of the woodworks!  It is amazing the people that we have heard about, ran into that know and care so much.  So we are having a meeting on the 16th at my Mom's house and in need of more people.  Leave a comment and I can give you the info you need to get there. 
Stay tuned in for more event info We will be doing pre-registering for the 5k and are working on getting that event page set up to have that started.    Will try and keep more posting coming I know I have forgot some things, till then  Love you all...A
