TEDDY BEAR DINNER... BEGGING HERE FOLKS.. HELP ME PLEASE!!!
HI PEEPS!!! I soooo appreciate the responses I have received as well as the paypal funds and donations. I havent received a lot of RSVPs but i do know from past experiences that I always have more bodies at dinner than I do RSVPs. However, this time.. I do need a more accurate count. Im a tish worried. Since Autumn and her family really want to be at the dinner, I desperately need to have bodies there. IM down to the wire at knowing if i need to cancel the dinner portion and just collect bears and donations or continue with the dinner as well. Please help me decide.
THANKS!!!

Our own Qur Rust works with Autumn's grandmother, and has been praying for this brave child for over two years. Autumn has been diagnosed with brain stem cancer. She and her family will be in attendance at the dinner. We ask that you bring a bear to help her in her efforts to help other children. Other needs are !/4 inch ribbon and gas cards as she commutes to MD. Anderson in Houston for her treatments. Any cash received will be transferred into gas cards or bears. Please see Liz or Que for these specific details. Autumn is a very brave child we need to support in these trying times.
Please pass along to anyone you think may want to donate to this fabulous cause.
I have had inquiries about a paypal account... feel free to use [email protected] and we have used that to convert to gas cards for the commute to MD Anderson in houston.
the 1/4 in ribbon Autumn uses to personally attach a handwritten note to each bear given out.. just letting the child know about the 'bear program' so to speak!... thanks for asking!

Again??? I decided not to have the last party I was planning cause there was a dinner that night. Wasn't that just 2-3 weeks ago? I'd love to do another dinner, but I'm not going back to Mercado. If y'all want to do an after-party at my house, like old times, that would be great. But I won't be at Mercado.
