Food donations!

Sitting here at my parents still healing up from my surgery. Both of our parents have been blessings since the surgery. The first two days home from Chicago, Jim's parents watched Isaac for me so I could be at my parents and them take care of me because those were still some very rough days! Then Sunday night through tomorrow, Isaac and I have been at my parents so that they could help me with Isaac as I am still recovering, since Jim works during the day. We miss daddy SO much but we got to skype with him last night and cannot wait to see him tomorrow!

Anyways, can you believe that Annabelle's Hope & Hearts Event is only 18 days away! It's getting down to all those last minute details...it's kind of crazy but I know on the event day it will be so worth it!

Because of it being our first year and because of the economy, we didn't get as many donations as we had hoped so we have some last minute, mainly food/item donations we need for the event so that we don't have to take it out of the budget, so that more can be put towards helping families. Below is a little graphic I made with what we still need, if you would like to help in any way with even a small part of one of those things, please let me know asap! Thanks so much!

So if you haven't registered yet PLEASE do so, this just helps us prepare more for who actually will be running/walking the event. Of course you can register even on event day but it goes up $5 and by registering pre-event, it helps us with preparations more! :0)  Just got to www.HopeandHeartsRun.Org/Ohio and click on the link to register and either register online or print off your form!

Also if you are running or walking in the event and haven't yet made your First Giving page to help bring in donations from people sponsoring your run/walk, please do so VERY soon! This is the KEY way we bring in funds for the event! It's SUPER easy but if you have any questions just let me know! You make your page, share whatever you want and then send the link to your page to everyone you want to invite to sponsor you. I will also put a link below for you to print off a form to take around with you if you want to collect donations manually without having people go online!
