    We are getting a lot of great donations from people coming to the party but I would love to get some other stuff too. Anyone have any ideas of what? Or anyone I can contact? I would love to raise a lot of money for TTTS. I know you all know this but we lost one of our twins when she was just three years old due to complications of TTTS. Here is a link to the TTTS Foundation website http://www.tttsfoundation.org/

    Would love some ideas of stuff you would like to see raffled off or auctioned off.

    I would definitely get in contact with local businesses - tattoo parlors, clothing, electronic, restaurants, event-y type places, bowling alleys, etc. and see if they are willing to donate and 'sponsor' the event!

    I have a special goodie I will be bringing down for raffle, but it's a surprise :D

    This is my kind of love...

    Bumping this off of page 5.

    I hope to see so many people there!! Emaline, Melissa and me are working really hard to make this a great party and fundraiser.

    Just want to post again that all money we raise is going to TTTS, twin to twin transfusion syndrome foundation. I lost my sweet Eleanore when she was just 3 years old from complications of TTTS.
    This is her about 2 months before she passed away.

    I would love to find someone who could make us a banner, or knows of someone that could. You can pm me or Melissa, ozarkcoolchic.

    THANKS!! :mrgreen:

    She is. And doing this fundraiser has been so bittersweet, it makes me think of her all the time. Not that I don't anyway. The past few days I have been listening to this, makes me think of her.

    i've got our love to remember
    that will never change
    i have you in my head
    and no, i'll never hold you
    and i'm still asking why
    i guess that this is goodbye

    my dreams suddenly seem so empty
    i could go on my own, but i feel like playin' dead
    and for what feels like the first time
    i don't know where you are tonight
    i guess that this is goodbye

    we lived half our lives together
    a hundred years is a lot of weight to bear
    and the sun, it may be shining
    there's an ocean in my eyes
    cause i know that this is goodbye
    cause i know that this.. is goodbye

    And to try to keep this on topic, we are working on some sweet St Louis places hoping we get some nice donations. :mrgreen:

    We are coming from Southern Illinois and are taking AmTrak from St. Louis to KC and then back to St. Louis cuz we are too lazy to drive. We are thinking we could nap during the trip back to St. Lou and be refreshed for the party/concert that night.
