So I've started this post about three times and can't exactly put into words what I want to say. So I'm going to start with the fact that my sister is an amazing woman! Jessica owns a children's consignment store and runs it with my little sister Maria. Jessica had the fantastic idea to hold a benefit fundraiser for my family at her store. She got all my aunts, cousins, and some of her local friends to bake and then asked all our family to come run the bake sale. I can't even explain to you how amazing that day was! I love helping people out, but being on the receiving end is kinda hard! I cried telling people about my husband (and I haven't really been that emotional about it all) then I would get emotional due to the generosity of family, friends, and complete strangers! It truly was a day I will never forget! I know I am not doing it justice so I'm going to share some pics from that day, and hopefully you will see a little of what I felt!
