And the total is...

... If you can believe it: $11,490.06

We can hardly believe it but it's true and it is wonderful!

Thank you to the over 130 donors who made today possible! We are incredibly grateful to the Great American Saloon for their dedication to our family, Jed and our Foundation. Without you guys, this event wouldn't be possible at this enormity. Thank you to our family and friends who willingly hit the streets visiting local businesses to solicit donations! The time that you put in is so precious to us. Thank you to our GammAcacia family who continues to love and support us, always. And of course thank you to everyone who came out today from near and far despite Irene and helped us raise $11,490.06 to help fight childhood cancer.

We have a sign!

We never thought we could do it... but we made $56 more than last year! It was a crazy, hectic, fun and humid day! We wouldn't have traded our Saturday to be doing anything else. The money raised today is so important. It will all help children and families fighting childhood cancer being treated at Penn State Milton Hershey Children's Hospital. Some of the funds will do double duty, first being donated to Red Lion High School Mini-THON or the Penn State Dance Marathon before making their way back to the Four Diamonds Fund or the hospital but either way, they are changing lives.

We started out the morning with rain and dealt with it all day but it wasn't so bad after all!

Thank you to Casey Thompson for all of the FABULOUS face painting & airbrush tattoos!
They were a huge hit and we know you had a long haul to get to us today.
We are so grateful and wouldn't trade you for the world. Thank you so much Casey!
