Changes

Ryker is changing so fast and learning so many things! In the past week he has learned to:
  • Give a high-five!
  • Say "uh-oh"
  • Take 2-3 steps!
  • Laugh out loud to get our attention (he thinks he is so neat!)
  • Make a lot more sounds that sounds like talking
  • Make me so proud and happy!
I am going to start an AVON fundraiser (see previous post) for the Billings family special needs children. They have 9 adopted children all with special needs. They were gunned down for absolutely no reason in their own home in Florida. Now their oldest daughter is raising all 9, trying to keep up with 2 mortgages and the will her parents had is not valid (can you IMAGINE
?!?) I was shocked that they had only had $1100 donated to them! 40% of the price of all products ordered will go to their children. Read more about the family by clicking on the picture (they were on Oprah yesterday).
I will post a link so that you can buy the products (lotion, bubble bath, body wash, body spray and hand sanitizer). If you would be willing to help by circulating flyers to your neighborhood or ward I will give you a free gift! Thanks!

Fundraisers

I have a desire...to help someone, anyone! I have been looking for a good cause to help for months now. Being an AVON representative, I can do fundraisers that yield awesome results (40% proceeds!) I found this great cause, Taylie Abbott has cancer and lives in the Valley. By posting her link someone is donating $2 everytime! Click on her picture to visit her website:
(what a cute girl!)
Repost her link (on your blog, facebook, twitter...) and let Kylene at A Dash of Season know so that the money can be donated!

I contacted Taylie's family, so hopefully I can help out with a fundraiser in the near future.

Anyways, if any of you know of any other great causes that you want to raise money for, let me know. It is so simple and with the holidays right around the corner, it is the perfect time to have a fundraiser!
