walk MS 2011: craig's crew

hey all!

this weekend i'll be joining some of my great friends and a few thousand other people to participate in the 2011 walk MS. the goal of this program is to raise awareness of those dealing with MS and to help raise money for the national multiple sclerosis foundation to find a cure and fund programs for those affected by this debilitating disease.

i've known quite a few people who have suffered or are suffering from MS and i've seen how difficult it can be. this disease has a different effect on everyone and is quite unpredictable. some of my dear friends lost their dad to this disease a few years ago. he was a very active person and one of the most genuinely kind people i've ever met -- even through his trials.

to honor him, they have created a team (craig's crew) for the 2011 walk MS. if you're in the salt lake area this weekend and would like to join the cause, you can sign up to join craig's crew here. or register to join and participate in the walk with someone else.

fyi
craig's crew was also mentioned here.

new cards and a birthday

i have a couple new cards in the shop.
a happy easter bunny and a happy birthday girl! plus, i've got a few leftover valentine's on sale. check it.

i also celebrated a birthday -- exactly one month ago! i was lucky enough to take the day off work and visit my parents while bri gave a demo to a local attorney. that morning, bri made me some delicious happy birthday muffins (complete with a candle and an enthusiastic solo of "happy birthday"). we then took off for vegas to support our aggies at the wac tournament. yet, again, another great birthday!
