thank you for lemonade stand fundraiser

Here is a picture of the thank you notes we are still working on.  Megan wanted to have baseball fan bears for the notes.  We still have a lot to do, but wanted to share.  Megan was a 2011 New York Yankees HOPE Week honoree in 2011.  The New York Yankees gifted her with a special lemonade stand that now goes on the road for fundraising.  On June 23 the Staten Island Yankees hosted the stand at the Richmond County Ball Park and the lemonade stand raised over 4300 dollars for the Manresa Columbian Club.  The Manresa Columbian club is the home of the Manresa Knights of Columbus and the Columbiettes (2147).  Megan is a member of the Columbiettes and the Manresa Columbian club was devastated in Hurricane Sandy and had to be rebuilt in order to keep delivering charitable works and services to the neighborhood which was hit so hard. 
     Congratulations to the 2013 New York Yankees HOPE week honorees whom are being honored this week.  You truly are an inspiration to us all.  

Sweet wishes for a recent graduate

Megan wants what Megan wants, so dinosaurs are in for Mother's Day!

Special Guest Card Creator- Erin (Megan's sister)

Megan's sister, Erin, created this amazing thank you card. As you can see from the image on the phone next to the card, this card was a cricut created replica of the Mayday album cover. Erin wanted to thank someone who went above and beyond to return a lost item. 
Erin, so proud of you- beautiful card!

Busy Birthday Season!

Sneak Peek

Megan is making favors for a fundraiser in mid-April.  The fundraiser is being run by the Manresa Columbiettes Auxiliary- of which she is a member- and it is a "spring tea"  with the theme of April Showers.   These cute umbrellas will all have labels on the back thanking attendees.  The fundraiser is to rebuild our Council in  Staten Island  since it was demolished by Hurricane Sandy. Couldn't wait till that day to share- look at her face and how happy she is.  She decides- and there is no arguing with her- what colors and how to decorate each one.  She made over 70 and is about halfway there!

happy Birthday, Uncle Joe!

Today is a very special uncle's birthday.  He has always been a source of support and prayer for our family.  He has shown us the spirit of being a Knight of Columbus and a family man. He and my godmother have volunteered for their church and community.  I have been the luckiest person in the world in terms of godparents and Megan has received so much love from them. Wishing you love  and happiness always, Uncle Joe!
