Week 3

This week $730 was donated bringing the grand total to $1,045!!! Awesome! Thanks so much. If any of you want to help my mom with a fundraiser please let her know. We have a friend who would customize dog bone shaped ID tags, so we're thinking about how to "market" that. Any ideas? Let us know! Thanks again!

***** 10% *****

BETWEEN CHECKS AND ONLINE DONATIONS WE HIT THE 10% MARK TODAY!!!! Thank you--I don't know what else to say! This is so amazing! And in case you're wondering, I'm feeling much better. I got my energy back and was running around the house like a crazy person this evening. :) Mom is going to make me stay home from school tomorrow just to be safe though. Thank you all!

The Flu :(

Today I got sent home from school because I've got the flu, so I can't go up to Brigadoon to see the dogs. Which means no pictures. Mom is trying to reschedule during spring break, so hopefully in a couple of weeks I'll get some pictures up. I'm going to take a nap. :(

New Pictures

I know I said I was going to post pictures tomorrow after my visit up to Brigadoon (and I still will), but I thought I'd put some up tonight of pictures that were taken on Sunday.

ESAR

Tonight Madison, Mom and I went to Snohomish to meet with the members of ESAR (Explorers Search and Rescue). They have kindly committed to putting together a car wash with the proceeds going to Brigadoon for my dog. I will keep you posted on the date and time! Thank you ESAR!

First week of donations

This week $205 was donated toward my service dog! Yeah! What a great start. My brother, Cameron, even donated $5.00 of his own money! Thank you Cameron, and thank you to all of you who have already donated!!! I'm hoping to have my mom give a weekly update on our progress, but we'll see....I can't make any promises for her! Have a great week!
Much Love,
Aaron

Pictures coming soon!

We are going to Brigadoon on Wednesday the 26th for a visit. My Auntie Noel is coming with us, so expect pictures to follow. Check back to see the pictures!
Much Love,
