It means that you have decided to look beyond the imperfections...

Massive lack of updates... But alots being going on

First of all lets start with the first fundraiser that was held 2 weeks ago for 4P Aussie Kidz.
We set up 4P Aussie Kidz to not only raise awareness about Ellie's condition, Wolf Hirschhorn Syndrome (WHS), but to also raise money. Money to assist families in Australia who also have children with WHS. The money raised will go towards buying equipment that WHS children may require, such as standing frames, walking frames, car sets, etc....

The first fundraiser night was a LONG time in the planning.. We have been thinking about for about 1 year, but been planning and organising it since May this year, so 6 months or so.

The night was a massive success.. we had about 140 people attend. I spent allot of the night looking around and thinking... WOW... We did this...!! It was a very overwhelming night. I was overwhelmed by all the people that attended, the generosity of people and the success of the night. We had 81 silent auction items, which all sold & 14 live auction items, again which all sold. We also had the pleasure of giving away heaps of prizes, and raffles... Allot of people walked away with great gifts..!!

A MASSIVE Thank You to all who were involved, helped and attended on the night.. The night wouldn't have been as successful as it was, without you..
