Monster Trucks & Concert!

The Rummage/Bake sale money this year went towards monster truck racing and a country concert! The guys loved watching the monster trucks race around the track and climb over other cars and everyone else enjoyed a country concert with Julianne Hough from Dancing with the Stars and Keith Anderson! Everyone enjoyed a snack and a drink while they watched the show. We also have money left over for a pizza party! Thanks again to all that helped out in the sale!

Summer Vacation 2009!

Time for a summer vacation! Last year we visited Chicago and had a great time, this year we decided to go to St. Clair Shores and participate in a fishing derby! We had a great time going out on the boats and catching lots of fish! We also took a tour of Morley Chocolate Factory and received lots of samples of chocolates and saw how it was made. This was a great trip, can't wait to see what new adventure we'll be going on next year!

Everyone smile!

Summerfest 2009!

This past Saturday was our annual Summerfest party co-hosted with the BIA of Michigan! It was a very rainy day but that didn't damper our party! We held the party in the activity room and enjoyed great music by the band "Back 40", enjoyed a great BBQ and most importantly, hung out with family and friends!

They will pick from concerts, racing, a bull riding show, motocross, and more! We'd like to send a BIG thanks to everyone that donated to the sale and all who helped out working at the sale. See you next year!
