Luck of the Irish & Baby Crowley

Our school that the girls attend had its annual Luck of the Irish Fundraiser this past weekend. This is a huge fundraiser for the school and all the parents are involved in someway. My mom watched the girls, which was nice. Unfortunately, Rachel came down with a virus and had a fever all day Saturday and it lasted until Tuesday morning. Luckily that's all it was and it seems as though she's on the mend. Natalie is taking her turn now, but looks much better today. At the Luck of the Irish, we have a dinner, silent auction, raffle games and live auction. All are equally fun, but my favorite is probably the live auction especially when there's bidding wars. Brian was a lucky winner and won $100 on the raffle. In the past 5 years we've never won anything at this fundraiser! I picked up a cute Pampered Chef basket and a basket of books that will be read and recorded by all the teachers, personalized for the girls. It was a fun time and hopefully a big success.

Another exciting thing that happened this past weekend, was our friends, thc Crowley's welcomed little Makayla Kathryn into the world. Sharon, the mom, is quite the trooper. 30 hours of labor!!! She did a great job. We are so excited for them and they will be great parents. Makayla is adorable and I was able to spend a little time with Sharon and Makayla at the hospital. So precious!
