Endless summer...



On saturday we went to Newport Beach-
The Orange County Friends of St. Jude
present the Fourth Annual Event
“Endless Summer”
Saturday, September 9, 2006
Newport Dunes, Newport Beach, California

it was very cute fundraiser (sp). Endless amounts of coctails and food - and more people drank, more generous they got. So I guess It was one awsome project :) We met one St Jude family from Riverside area. Their daughters name is Elizabeth and she is 8 years old. Her diagnosis is Osteogenesis Imperfecta Type III, also known as the brittle bone disease. I wish them all the best. :) When her dad and mom were giving a little speech I just teared up. It was very seweet. :)

Gabriel and his new friend were building sand towers and defeating evil all night long. It was nice to seeing gabriel playing "Boy " games for a while.

We know Elizabeth well, we met her in February 2005 at Country Cares, then again at the St. Jude fundraisers in San Diego in the spring:
