OK, i dont have a flyer or anything on this one. But it has to do with medical treatments and expenses for her.

The important thing is to get the word out to our community about this event so there is a great turn out and that money can be raised to help this family in need.

Community

The term community has two distinct meanings: 1) A group of interacting people, living in some proximity (i.e., in space, time, or relationship). Community usually refers to a social unit larger than a household that shares common values and has social cohesion. The term can also refer to the national community or international community, and, 2) in biology, a community is a group of interacting living organisms sharing a populated environment.

1986 study, McMillan and Chavis identify four elements of "sense of community": 1) membership, 2) influence, 3) integration and fulfillment of needs, and 4) shared emotional connection.

Inspired Quote of the Day

The sun was setting in the western sky as I was driving to a Pampered Chef Party hosted by my daughter-in-law (Trista) and my daughter (Julie) as the consultant. My one year old granddaughter showered with love and attention the entire time I was there! A special treat for any Grandma!

The pull apart pizza and the brownies and strawberries were delicious.

The brownies were a special treat. When they had seven minutes left to bake they were pulled from the oven. Marshmallows were cut up and tossed on along with Hershey's kisses. They were returned to the oven to finish baking and served up with caramel drizzled over the top. Oh my how yummy it was!

I received so many compliments on my new hair do and color it was just amazing!

Chelly Harrell is the stylist and is building her business. She has been working two jobs for many months. Seven days a week.

Most people are pretty specific in what they want done. However, I have only one requirement. Can't cut it all off. But color and style - I like to let her have a little fun. I always love whatever she does.

Getting up in the morning is such joy when you have a great hair cut!

February Sunrise in Beaverton MI

beaverton sunrise

7:42 AM February 22, 2012

Two days ago, the weather was simply amazing. The sunrise was beautiful and birds were chirping. It was warm? Well, if you've been in the cold as long as us, yes, it really was warm!

My daughter came into my room, opened the window and exclaimed what a beautiful day it was! I shared in her enthusiasm and agreed! Although I already knew it was a beautiful day. I had been up for a couple hours. And spending some of it with her and my daughter-in-law and grandbabies made it even more beautiful....

Today, spring is no longer in the air, and we are seeing that it really is still winter!

Hoping to make snowmen later today or tomorrow.

Have a wonderful day and a wonderful weekend!

See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...we need silence to be able to touch souls.
- Mother Teresa

Communication is key in many professions, including real estate.

However, silence is also important in our lives.

My husband has a couple of favorite tv sitcom series. They would be REBA and HOME IMPROVEMENT. Fortunately, since he plays them over and over, I like and enjoy them as well.

Note: Our son in law had the priveledge of meeting and speaking to Reba. And even if she doesn't remember, he got to tell her that his father-in-law loves both her music and her show.

There is an episode of Reba, where Reba's parents come to visit. And her father tells Van what is important in a relationship.

SILENCE

Among other things as well, but for today's purpose, will focus on the Silence!

So of course, google it. Right! We google everything we want to know more about, right!

Silence - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia<!-- /tagline --><!-- subtitle -->

Silence is the relative or total lack of audible sound. By analogy, the word silence may also refer to any absence of communication, even in media other than speech.[1] Silence is also used as total communication, in reference to non verbal communication and spiritual connection. Silence is also referred to no sounds uttered by anybody in a room and or area. Silence is a very important factor in many cultural spectacles, as in rituals.

Today, in Beaverton Michigan, it's been snowing for hours. It's not yet 11:00 AM and I have already swept the snow off my car twice today. And I will be sweeping it off again before I can drive some more....

The snow is so heavy and wet, huge flakes are coming down as I type, I thought maybe it would roll for making a snowman. But when I tried a while ago, it's not quite ready!

Think I will turn on the radio and excercise a little.

The silence was nice and relaxing, but I guess I 'm ready for a little noise and movement now......

What a beautiful morning. What a beautiful day.

But do drive carefully if you're out on the roads today....
