30 Things before I'm 30 - #15 - Volunteer!


So, I have really been lacking on my 30 Things before 30 list!  You can read it here if you would like.

But, last night, I took a step in the right direction!


Number 15 on the list is to join a volunteer organization.  Well, I took the first step and signed up to volunteer for the Layla Grace foundation!  If you haven't read sweet Layla's story, I encourage you to do so.  The event is - A Taste of Cy-Fair.


The event is Sunday, June 13, from 12pm - 4pm at the Northwest Forest Conference Center.  It will be a great family event and all proceeds will benefit the Layla Grace Foundation.  Many local businesses will be showcased, and the price of your ticket includes free food and drink samples from over 40 local restaurants!  I get to help with the kid's crafts - making butterflies :)  I'm so excited!  If you live in the Cy-Fair area, please come and check it out!
