HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOSH!!!!!!!!!!!

Today Josh turns 17. He is happy, healthy and
living life to it's FULLEST!! What more could
we ask for?!?!

We are not hosting an Alex's Lemonade Stand
this year. We have had it at our neighborhood
Ingles Market for the past several years but
they have a new policy about fundraising.
We are brainstorming about what to do next
year or perhaps later this year.
(the picture is from last years stand)

Please wish Josh a Happy Birthday & pray for
those continuing to fight this battle and the
families who celebrate their child's birthday's
without them. We are so very blessed for every
moment and will never take that for granted.

Blessings to you,
Sherry & family
