Kathmandu is on my mind...

Hello! and Namaste!

I can't wait for the Nepal trip to get started. I'm savoring every moment with my family and yesterday had a wonderful Easter with everyone.

I'm happy to say IT'S ALL FOR NEPAL mainland edition did AMAZING! I well exceeded my goal of $1,000....and raised $1,910.46!!!!! Everyone had a fun night and a lot of the community contributed to the cause by playing music, games, raffles and the 50/50.

One of the highlights from IT'S ALL FOR NEPAL Mainland was the 50/50 raffle! People were still trying to purchase tickets after Dylan announced the draw was done!

The jackpot was up to $230!!! My sister, Nicole called the winner,  Eva Marsh to tell her that she had won. This is when Eva said "IT'S ALL FOR NEPAL Steph, It's all for Nepal." This is an amazing example of the fun we had and everyone's generous mood!

Another highlight were the Pink Ribbon Cupcakes everyone loved!! The one winning cupcake was found by a 21 year old named Dean. He won a RiverHouse roadside assistance bag :) and finally, the photography by Stefanie Hurst Toigo who everyone happily posed for. Thank you so much!

It was great getting everyone together and being a part of a memerable night that, I know, I will never forget. It was great seeing my worlds come together and see smiling faces.

I'm really looking forward to meeting the children. Unti I see those beautiful faces I will not know what to expect! so, I will bring a book and wait...

count down is getting pretty stingy.

Love, Hope, Faith and strength!!! the only words I can really think of now besides dylans inspiring "You are my strong and independent woman!"

Thanks for reading, i'm getting pretty mushy as I'm getting ready for take off so I hope you start to comment on some posts! blogs are kinda hard....
