Breast Cancer Benefit & Happy Mother's Day!

Last night was a great success! My friend Jerry raised over $2,000 for Laurie's unpaid medical expenses. One-hundred of our friends showed up in support and my friend Judy-B and I had gotten to see so many of our old friends whom we have not seen in ages! GREAT JOB, Jerry! We are all so very proud of you!

 There was a buffet of hot and cold food, live music with two awesome bands, and free fun for all. Here are some pics from last night ...

Also, I would like to say "HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY" to all the mommies out there, whether they be "mommy" mommies or "furr baby" mommies!!!! LOL!
