2010 Jubilee of Trees

Once again it is Jubilee of Tree. Where did the year go too? The Jubilee is the big fundraising event for the DRMC Foundation. This years project was raising money for Breast Health. Dave was very involved this year with many different aspects. He helped design and build the Thrift Store's Christmas Tree to be sold at auction. He was constantly on the move picking up and delivering boxes, supplies, and basic goffer. As a family we were able to participate in the Ladies Luncheon Fashion Show. Our outfits came from the thrift store and were all under $20.

Is this how we model?

Time for dress rehersal.

All dressed up and ready to go.

Don't we look sharp and all in the name of charity.

The highlight of the fashion show was as Reganne, Ryder, and I started down the cat walk. Ryder kept tugging at me and pulling at his pants. We got to the end and ready to make our turns. Ryder yelled Mom My Pants!!! As he turned he lifted up his shirt and mooned everyone. He pants had falled below his bottom. I quickly pulled them up as the audience were laughing.

It was fun to do this as a family. The girls are already planning next years outfits.

The Store's Christmas Tree sold for over $500 and Dave was able to deliver the tree to the new owner. She was so thankful for him bringing to her house and told him how much she loved the tree and the memories that it brought back. She and her husband used to spend Thanksgiving at the beach. He passed away and now she has the tree to remind her of happier times.
