Creative Booths

Since announcing the prom expo and fashion show I have had lots of people calling about booths. These are people who make things....creative things! Some of these things don't go exactly with our theme, but I still wanted to include them. Most of them are donating all their profits to Relay or forming teams. I am so excited! These creative items include: Hand made hair bows, head bands, monogramming, monogrammed key rings, onesies, etc.......

Come to the show to see them in person!

Missing Tim

Tim left for murfeesboro on a work trip Sunday. Even though I know he is coming back, and he is only going to be gone a week, it was still hard to say bye to him.

I have tried to keep myself busy and so far I have been successful. I even went to the gym last night. I know shocking right? I didn't do anything too crazy, just walked on the tredmill. Surprisingly after leaving I felt very relaxed. My legs were almost like jello and I had a hard time walking, but I was relaxed none the less.

Besides the gym experience I have a couple of appointments this week and some surprises to get ready for Tim! I love surprises and to surprise other people. Tim on the other hand really doesn't like them. He thinks I go to too much trouble. It's really no trouble because again I love surprises!

Oh well!

Help me pray for Tim. Pray that he passes his test! Pray that he has a safe trip home.! Pray that he doesn't get too mad when gets a look at the changes I made in the apartment this week!

Tracy's House

Tracy and I are having a premier party. Kristy just had one last week and I saw all the new stuff. Having a party is a great way to get free jewelry! Let me know if you can make it!

Prom Show & Expo

Good news........ we have a date, location, time and DRESSES!!!!

That's right!

First Volunteer Bank will host a prom fashion show and expo on March 7th at Caryville Elementary School. The doors will open to vendors at 11 a.m. for set up. We will open the doors to the pubic at 1 p.m. The fashion show will start at 3 p.m.

Vendors will be set up inside the gym. If you are interested in being a vendor please let me know. Vendor booths are $25 and that money goes directly to Relay for Life. Any money that a vendor makes at the show is their's to keep. We can provide a table and two chairs for each booth, but vendors can bring their own if they wish. We have confirmed several vendors already including photographers, make-up artists, hair stylists, jewelers, etc.

I am talking with a dress store in Knoxville. They know that lots of girls from Campbell County go to Knoxville for prom items. They are new and want to get their name out.

However, the dress incentive still stands. If you have a dress that you would like to enter in the show let me know.

If your dress or dresses sell you get half of the profit and the other half goes to Relay. If you want to donate all the proceeds to Relay that would be great, but you don't have to.

We need volunteers to help with the event so if you are interested let us know!

Fishing Tournament

First Volunteer is thinking about hosting a fishing tournament. This event would benefit Relay for Life. We are still in the planning stages. If you think you may be interested in this event let me or Paige know.

I know absolutely nothing about fishing, so Paige is heading this fund raiser up. We don't want to have it when another fishing tournment is going on, so if you know of one let us know!

If you don't want to fish, but would still like to help, we would love to have you!

Behind

I know it has been a while since I blogged, but it has been a crazy couple of days. I have some things to blog about, but I will wait until I can post pictures with them. That may be next week since Tim has my laptop right now. He is out of town for work so I sent it with him. I figured between 8 hours of school during the day, studying for a couple of hours at night and of course missing me, he might get a little bored.

Anyway I have had a couple of people call over the weekend about appointments. With the weather I am afraid to promise anybody anything. I have a list about a mile long of people waiting on spring! I have an appointment on Wednesday so hopefully the weather will cooperate!
