benefit for sydney

i know....been a little slacking on the blogging, but we've been super busy. yesterday was sydney's benefit at johnson elementary school. silent auction, bake sale, car wash and chicken plate lunches....ALL IN 1 DAY! cory and i have been super busy with the silent auction items here at our house for the past 2-3 weeks. we had so many things donated from everywhere; athens, huntsville, decatur...you name it. nick saban sent us a signed football, paula deen signed a cookbook, and rick and bubba sent us lots of things. if you missed this event, you missed out big time! i've never been so touched by one community. we may live in the "country", but i am so proud to be a part of it. yesterday showed how awesome everyone can pull together for such an awesome cause. there were TONS of people there just to be there for cynthia, jamie, dawson and especially sydney. they even arrived in a stretch excursion LIMO....oh yeah, sydney got to arrive in style!
here is the clip from last night's news channel 19.

thanks to everyone that came out to support our family. our hearts were touched greatly!
