Faulkner University Volleyball Awareness Dinner


Last night was the Faulkner Volleyball Awareness Dinner. We had a great time visiting with friends and family! The Volleyball team raised over $3,000 through ticket sales and the silent auction for breast cancer research! Praise God!!!

Doug Amos (the MC and a good friend)
Kim Hendrix (the keynote speaker and local news anchor for WSFA)
Me and Addie (my granddaughter)

(the cutest baby ever...but I am a little biased! :)
do notice the breast cancer ribbon on her dress!

Paul (my son-in-law), Me, Addie, and Anna (my daughter)

Addie with "T", the Assistant Coach who co-organized the event.
She's one of Addie's favorite friends!

Addie and Tori (the head Volleyball coach) and some team mates

Mr. What's-His-Name (Terry Brown, who Anna started calling this when she was a child!) and now "Little What's her Name"!
Addie figured out his face was scruffy like her daddy's.

Carrie (a team member and one of my students), Addie, and Toni (the team manager)
Addie LOVED both of these girls!

what a mess!

Addie, Sharon Paulk (my department chair and dear friend), and Me

the dress Anna and I made for the silent auction
Doug Amos, who has a precious little girl close to Addie's age, bought it!

It was a great night, and we all came away incredibly blessed by the servant hearts of the volleyball team and Kim Hendrix's message. The girls were successful in raising both awareness and money for breast cancer.

Help me reach my goal for the Atlanta Breast Cancer 3-Day!
