Oasis Coffee Fundraiser!

What are you doing this Friday between 2pm and 5pm? Why? Oh, just wondering. See, I have information saying that pretty much the coolest thing ever is happening. I know, right? Word on the street is that there's gonna be one heck of a party going on at Oasis Coffee on 7802 Goddard rd. in Boise, ID. Serious! So, feel free to stop by on the way to your graduation parties, on the way to the grocery store, to get dinner, or whatever! Oh, what's it for? To help out Colin and Kona get to Europe, duh! They say that a large portion of every drink or beverage bought will be donated towards Colin and Kona's ambassadorship to Spain, Italy and France this July!

On top of all that, check this out! Recently, a story was published in the Idaho Statesman about a group of students from Timberline High School who had raised all their money to go on a trip to France! Awesome, right? Totally-that is until the travel company they were going through went into bankruptcy. Not cool. All the money the kids had raised was flushed down the toilet- more than $40,000! Non-refundable, no cash back.
Well, on hearing of this unbelievable let-down, Colin and Kona decided they wanted to help. That's why 50% of all the funds raised at the fundraiser on Friday will be donated to this class for them to use it to fill their money hole, or to put towards a future trip.
Awesome, right?

So, what are we waiting for! Oh, right...Friday.
See ya then!

Upcoming Events!

Hello everyone!

As the date of our departure gets closer, Colin and I are getting busier. This morning I was babysitting and the kids and I had a lemonade stand in my front yard for two hours. In those two hours, we were able to make $35! God has definitely been providing but a lot still has to be done.

Next Saturday, May 23rd, is our garage sale. We are still collecting items and would love it if you could drop anything off at Colin's or my house. If you need any help with big items please give us a call. The garage sale is going to be from 8-5.

Please continue to keep us in your prayers!

Another Successful Fundraiser!

Hello!

I just wanted to thank everyone who came to our Pampered Chef party. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. Colin and I really enjoyed sharing more about our trip with everyone who came. We are still waiting to hear how much money we made but we do know that we sold over $1,000 of Pampered Chef items!

Colin and I will continue to update you on our progress and fundraisers but in the meantime, please save your garage sale items! We are going to have a garage sale on May 21st and would really love your help! If you have any items that you would like to donate now, I have space in my garage for it.

Thank you again for your support!

Pampered Chef Party

Hello Everyone!

Here is a quick update on our next fundraiser. On Thursday night, Colin and I are hosting a Pampered Chef party along with Jamie Estes and Susan Mansfield. The party will be held at the Mansfield house (see address below) and will start at 7:00pm. One of the mom's on the People to People team has offered to donate all of her profits as a Pampered Chef consultant to our trip. If you would like to attend, please contact either Colin or I to let us know that you will be coming. We hope to see you there!
