WOW.....that's the best word I can think of to describe our evening tonight!
Cooper, Russell, and I, along with our dear friend and regional Le Bonheur representative Connie, went to Wallerville Baptist Church in Union County. Under the leadership of our friends Randy and Sandra, the youth group has been raising money for the last 5 weeks to help our family's team for "A Family Affair". Their group was divided into 2 teams, competing against each other to see who could collect the most money. They called their competition "Cooper's Challenge to Change a Child's Life". Tonight, we revealed the amount each team raised, and rewarded the entire group with an ice cream sundae social and the winning group with a Le Bonheur backpack filled with happies.
Randy's team raised $116, and Sandra's team raised $126......TOTAL OF $236!!! It was a very close call, but Sandra's team won the Le Bonheur happies. BUT, as a "surprise thank you" for the entire group's hard work, they were invited as "Hughes Family" guests at the Miracle Maker Blast to be held April 28th. We hope that they come and celebrate again with us!!
Thanks again, Wallerville Baptist Church Youth Group!! You guys rock!!!
