WW: Thankful

After having a rough couple of months, it can sometimes be difficult to just stop, look around, and continue to be thankful for all of the wonderful things that you still have in your life.

This past weekend? I got a chance to do that.

A benefit was held in loving memory of my dad. It was a light-hearted and fun event, just like my dad would have wanted. Good food, drinks and lots of family and friends.

The room was filled to the brim with 250 of our closest friends and family members as we laughed and raised money for some pretty wonderful things.

I have a huge post planned for tomorrow, so don't forget to check back as I tell you how this whole fabulous benefit came together :)

Oh, and happy spring! Now if it would just start feeling like it, that would be fantastic.
