BENEFIT YARD SALE Saturday April, 5th

I just wanted to let everyone know we will be having a Yard Sale on Saturday at 8:00 a.m.(weather permiting) It will be in the parking lot of Wide Open Motorsports 60 Industrial Plaza, Mountain Home, AR. If you are coming from Mountain Home go towards Gassville on Hwy 62 West. Just past the last stop light (at the bypass) it is the first street on the right. If you get to the Ford dealership on the left you have gone to far. We will have signs and should be able to see the sale from hwy 62. We have items donated from many different families. My brother-in-law will also be cooking hot dogs for donations.

We will have a quilt and a gun that we are selling chances for there. The drawing for those will be on April 19th, at a benefit diner(more on that later). You do not need to be present to win as long as we have your phone # on the tickets.

Hope to see ya'll there

Thanks Again

Visa, Tickets, and Yard Sale

We are currently trying to get our visas and airplane tickets. I can't believe we will be going on May 14th. I never thought we would be going so soon. It seems like we've got so much to do. Of course when you've never traveled like this before it takes longer to figure everything out.

We are planning a Yard Sale Benefit. If everything works out, it will be at Wide Open Motorsports in the parking lot on Saturday, April 5th. If we have to change something I will update everyone. If everything stays the same I will give better directions on the loction.

Thanks again,
Marinda

Updates on Kacie

I want to say thank you to the Gassville Baptist Church for the Benefit Concert for Kacie. Whiteville Baptist Church for also attending. And also thank you to Jerry Hopper and Ally Hopper for performing at the concert. I really enjoyed listening to 7 year old Ally. You all have helped us so much. Thank You!!

I wanted to update all who keep up with Kacie and what is going on. We have finally recieved all her paper work from the doctors. I PUT IT IN THE MAIL ON FRIDAY, MARCH 7th!! It seemed like it took forever to get everything gathered. And when I thought I had everything I found out I needed something else and some lab work. Now we are just waiting to hear back from them. Hopefully it won't be to long. We are so excited and ready to go.
Thank You Again To All!

Updates on Kacie & Fundraisers

I just wanted to thank everyone who came to the benefit concert for Kacie and Josh at Dunbar Auditorium. And thank you to those who couldn't come and just stopped by and donated. I also wanted to say thank you to the people who played in the concert and wanted to help.

Gassville Baptist Church is also going to have a benefit concert for Kacie. It will be Sunday March 9th at 6:30 P.M. at Gassville Baptist Church. Jerry Hopper and family will be performing.

A benefit for Kacie will be held at the Gepp Fire Dept. on April 19th. There will be a band performing and also a dinner will be served. They will also draw for a gun and a quilt that they are selling chances for. The gun can be seen at T&K convenient store at Gepp, AR you can buy tickets there also. When I learn more on the time I will update it.

We will also be having a benefit yard sale in April I'm not sure on the date yet. It is going to have lots of clothing, house items, a playstation 2, and many other items from several families.

We are currently waiting on Kirshner to return from China and answer some more questions we have about what else we need from her doctors. I thought I had everything ready and then learned we needed some more info. from the Endocrinologist.

I will try to find out more and update everyone, when I find out. Til next time......
