T-W-O

Two must be the theme for this week.  We are less than two months away from our 2nd Annual Bowling for Babies event on May 14th and our little girl's 2nd birthday is on Friday. Two is definitely on our minds. 

1.  We are preparing for our 2nd Bowling for Babies event.  So many fun things are being planned and we are looking forward to raising even more money this year to help NICUs.  I can't believe our 2nd bowling event will be here in less than two months.  Time flies when you are having fun helping others!

We currently have 2 wonderful sponsors for our event.  River's Run and Ride Rally and Brian & Laura Bredenberg are our current event sponsors.  As always if you or your company are interested in being an event sponsor or a lane sponsor, please feel free to email us at info@ellashalo.com for more information.  Thank you to River's Run and Ride Rally and Brian & Laura Bredenberg for your support for Ella's Halo Bowling for Babies 2011 Event.

We have received so many awesome donations for our raffles and silent auction this year too.  It is so fun to see all of the fun and different prizes we will be able to give to participants at this year's event.  If you are interested in promoting your business, etsy shop or your creative side, feel free contact us on how you can donate items to Ella's Halo.  All donations are tax deductible and help us raise money to help babies in the NICU.  We have golf vacations, wine tasting, tickets to We-Fest and the Guthrie, autographed photos, a gift pack to the Mall of America and so much more.  Don't forget to click here to purchase your tickets for our event. 

2.  Ella's 2nd birthday is March 25th.  I definitely have a heavy heart this week but am also looking forward to the fun day we have planned.  Ryan and I will be doing three donation drop offs at the 3 Level III NICUs here in the Twin Cities area.  We have over 100 bags for Children's St. Paul, 60 cameras and a couple of CD players for Children's Minneapolis, and 75 blankets, 20 books and 25 hats for Amplatz Children's Hospital.  It will be a nice way to give back to the NICUs on our little angel's birthday.

Ryan and I are planning to spend the day together and releasing 2 pink little balloons up to heaven to help our little girl celebrate.  I really can't believe it has already been two years.  It makes me sad to think of the things we are missing out on, things we don't get to do with our two year old little girl.  But it brings me some comfort knowing that other babies will be receiving the love from Ella's Halo on March 25th too.
