Relay for Life

Sunday morning and I am trying to relax with a cup of coffee . Happy to report that yesterday was a big sucess with our fund raiser for our Hartselle team in Relay for life. We have been selling ferns since March 19 to raise money - Our goal was $ 25,000 - happy to report that we exceeded that amount yesterday - We have worked hard on this - we still have a week to go - Last year we had $20,000 s0 we raised our goal for this year - thanks to all of you who have purchased plants from us. Without all of your support for our project we would not have met our goal - we think we may make close to the $28,000 to $30,000 before week is over - walk is Friday night at Hartselle football stadium - the Dynamic Dippers (our team) will be selling homemade Ice Cream that night - everyone come on out and have a great cup of cream for a great cause. Someone asked us yesterday how may ferns (our main seller) we have sold - we have no idea - just lots and lots - we have has stands in Hartselle and in Decatur - Our thanks to Eddie Pruitt for use of his vacant lot on corner. If any of you have not purchased your ferns f rom (fern ladies) name given to me by granddaughters Ash and M , we will be in Decatur next Monday thru Friday on 14th street.
Not much else has been going on at our house - not time when you do this project Monday - Saturday - all for the cause which is very dear to me.
The sisters (Reba, CArol and I along with Brenda (Carol's daughter ) Pam and Lisa - (Reba's
daughters) are on the team along with all husbands _ Joey , Lisa husband is our banker and
has been wonderful to make sure we have plants to sell. Husbands will be cranking out that ice cream on Friday .
I have my Granddog (Charlie) spending the week with his Memaw. - I love this little fellow - This week Bill sits with Trouble and I sit with Charlie - They both like to go ride- Trouble in her car seat and Charlie in Memaw's lap. If I didn't have this last week to work we would make Charlie a camper - I think he would do well.

Everyone have a great Sunday and a wonderful week .
