We had around 300 people attend! THANK you to everyone who came and thanks for all the messages, we know everyone is busy and its hard to get away! A DJ came and donated his time which was great background music. The food was so kindly donated by Guy's Party Centre, Italo's Pizza, and Parasson's. We had so much help from so many people to pull this event off which resulted in an extremely successful event for Baby Simon, Molly & Clint!
I keep getting calls today and e-mails for those who missed the event and would like to donate. The pay pal address is simonconger2012@gmail.com THANK YOU!!! The donations have far exceeded what we even thought could be possible. The kindness of friends, old and new was overwhelming. The members of St. Paul Church who attended and supported the event was so nice to see. It's so true, there are no better neighbors than those who live in Firestone Park, the best place we've ever lived!! The kindness of friends who have never met Molly, Clint, or Simon but attended to show support because of a connection through a family member or friend really meant a lot to all of us. THANK YOU does not seem like its enough. After the event last night I was thinking about times when people say, what is one of the favorite days of your life or a really awesome experience? I can honestly say I've been blessed with amazing experiences, opportunities, and adventures. However, last night ranks up with one of the very best. The kindness of a community, both locally and extended counties away....and kind donations from states away, means the world to our families.
I have a few pictures but will have more soon.....if you have any from the event, please e-mail me at bethbugner@gmail.com and I will upload them here. Thanks!!
