Little turtle we just saw in our driveway. We named him Chester, haha.
[Side note: This is the 2nd turtle we’ve seen in 2 days. The first turtle we saw Saturday in the middle of a busy road. I turned around and pulled over and ran into the road to move it so it didn’t get run over!]

“FIGHT FOR LIVES GIVEAWAY RAFFLE”
First, I want to send out a very special “THANK YOU” to all of the vendors who donated their items and time to help with this special event! This is to benefit the American Cancer Society’s “Relay For Life”.
Let me share a little about why I “Relay For Life”. In 2009 I was pregnant with my very first child. This was supposed to be one of the happiest times of my life. In July of 2009 when I was about 6 months pregnant, I lost my “Papa” to cancer. It was a devastating loss to our family and it seemed to happen so quick. Fast forward to October 2009, I lost my other Grandpa - also to cancer. He passed only 13 days before my beautiful daughter made her arrival into this world. This was such a difficult time for my family because we wanted to express our happiness and joy for the newest member of our family - but the pain of our loss was still heavy in our hearts.
So I Relay not only to honor their memory but to honor the memory of all of those who have lost their fight with cancer. I Relay to fight for the lives of those currently fighting their own cancer battles right now. I Relay to prevent anyone else from ever having to hear that painful diagnosis. I Relay so that no one has to go through the pain of losing their loved ones to such a horrible disease. I Relay because cancer can strike any one of us at any time - and I want to fight to make sure that doesn't happen anymore.
I started my journey with Relay For Life, last year, in 2010 with my Mom and good friend Beth. Our team name is “Fight For Lives” and our goal is to collect more donations each year and add more team members each year.
Now, onto the goods!

Giveaway opportunity for a great cause!
Hello blog followers and viewers! I appreciate all of your support and encouragement! I am writing today in search of your help for an upcoming giveaway!
If you are a photographer, photo prop maker, have an etsy store or are a vendor of something else – we need YOU!
Next month I am participating in the American Cancer Society’s “Relay For Life” with my fellow team mates. We still have a long ways to go for fundraising and hope you can help us! Our team goal is to raise $1,000 and we’ve only reached $30 so far!
If you are willing to donate an item or service to our “Fight For Lives” giveaway then please e-mail me at HKuepper817@hotmail.com and provide me with the following info:
- Your name and business name.
- Item you’re donating & total retail value of your item.
- Link to your blog/facebook page (or other site)
- Any special information you think I may need.
This is a GREAT opportunity to really get your business name out there and help a really wonderful cause all at the same time.
For those who are wondering, the giveaway will run something like this: once I gather enough vendors/donations, I will put together a “Fight For Lives giveaway” post. Anyone who wants to be eligible to win the giveaway will then donate (at least $10) to our Relay For Life team. I will then pick a donation at random.
If you think you’re able to help in anyway, I encourage you to send me an email at HKuepper817@hotmail.com
Thanks so much!
