Followers & Chip-In

I see that, as of this moment, I am up to 14 followers!!!!  Welcome, welcome, WELCOME!!!  I am sooo excited to see you guys here.

I want to draw your attention to the blue "Chip-In" box on the right.  We are trying to raise money for our daughter, Kimberly, to participate in the Oregon State National American Miss Pageant, taking place Memorial Day Weekend.  This pageant is designed solely to increase the self-confidence of girls of all ages.  It is completely age appropriate.  Kimberly, age 7, will be wearing no makeup, her formal gown (already on layaway), is floor length (as required), and is also age appropriate.  This is, by all means, NOT "Toddlers & Tiaras."  Kimberly begged for 3 years to be in a pageant and she was invited to participate in this one.  I know it seems like a silly thing to give money too, but no more so than buying candy bars for softball or popcorn for Scouts.  This is just another activity.  Also, I found out that the entry fees for this pageant are about half of what other pageants charge, so this will be the last one she does.  At any rate, if you are willing to give anything at all, we'd really appreciate it.  If you have any questions, you can visit the NAM website at: www.namiss.com.

NOTE:  If you donate funds out of a business account, it is TAX-DEDUCTIBLE as a business expense (we can provide receipts).

Anyone who donates $10 or more will be placed in a drawing to win a $50 Amazon gift card!!
*Email me and let me know that you donated and I will place you in in the drawing.  This prize is being offered by our family as an incentive for sponsorship.  You will receive one entry for every $10 donated!

Thanks, in advance, for your support!
