On March 5th I held a mini-muffin sale again at my work during our summer camp registration. There were lots of people and little kids running around and again it was a success! From just selling muffins we raised $121.00 dollars! I again had great little helpers, but sadly through all the crazyness I was un-able to take any pictures! Don't worry at my next event, I will be snap crazy with the camera! Again thank-you all for helping make a difference for suicide prevention, together we are saving lives!

The Big Bake Sale
I did my yearly Fat Tuesday bake sale, and again it was a BIG success due to my loving friends and family. Together we raised $605.00 dollars!! This money will go towards saving lives, and it so amazing that for the third year in a row we had such a great turn-out. There were times of saddness, but also so many times of laughter. I
again had the kids by my side as well as my beautiful niece. Thank-you all for helping raise awareness about suicide prevention, and helping with a cause that will help save lives!
In this photo are two of my great little helpers and me trying to hold my niece back from stealing the cupcakes!

Special Ornament
Hey Everyone,
Last week we my friends that I live with and I decorated the Christmas tree. I eagerly placed an ornament that is very special to me on the tree. That silver ball orname
nt is the last Christmas gift I received from my Mom. She made for me with love and I cherish it. The best gift was her love, but all I have now is this ornament to hold on to as well as the memories.

Always Remeber To Find Reasons To Smile:)
Hey Everyone,
Here is a silly picture of my awesome nephew and I making some crazy faces. Through my journey of grief of losing my Mom, I've learned to latch on to happy moments. Time with nephew is always just great, and I truly latch on to our time together. Though it's hard to know my Mom is not here to see this crazy little guy, I smile when I think that he is here because of her. With him, it's not hard to find reasons to smile.

November 11th Speech
Hello Everyone,
I again apologize for the very late post about this awesome speech.
This speech was given at the Courthouse Commons Cafe in Carlisle, PA. My amazing Aunt Deb and Uncle Curtis came to support me in this amazing cause, which was great. They were not the only familiar faces in the crowd though, my friend Govan from the Pennsylvania Suicide Prevention Coalition as also there. I walked up to the stage with shaky hands and before I began to speak I closed my eyes and thought of who I truly wanted to be in that crowd, my Mom. With this I opened my eyes to reality and spoke with passion about my Mother, and how I am now a motherless daughter. After this I pointed out different risk factors about suicide, and shared different preventative measures that can be taken when a loved one is suicidial.
The speech was great, and I thank Courthouse Commons and Ric LeBlanc for allowing me to spread the work about suicide prevention. Thanks as always to all who are making this possible, together we are saving lives!
