golf fundraiser

our brother-in-law Craig is the superintendent of the beautiful Braeside Golf Course in Rockford and he and Michelle's sister are planning a fundraiser to help us out with purchasing diapers, clothing, and other baby items that we need for the girls. the details of the event are below and we would love if you would help us spread the word. thad will be golfing, so it truly is open up to any skill level (seeing he has only played a total of 27 holes in his entire life). if you don't have a foursome and still want to play, please don't hesitate to sign-up. ALSO, the van van triplets will be making an appearance; so, basically, there is no reason not to come out for a day of fun and laughter.

Who: Golfers of any age and skill level

What: Golf Scramble – teams of 4 players
Team prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
Door Prizes
Lunch

Where: Braeside Golf Club, 5460 11Mile Road, Rockford MI 49341

When: Saturday, May 17 beginning at 9:00 A.M.

Why: Raising money to help with monthly expenses for Keegan, Samantha, and Maggie (ex. diapers, baby food, etc.)

Cost: $160.00/team ($40.00/player)

Contact Lynnette at 616.443.5200 to register your team before May 1, 2008.
in other news, we have begun taking trips in the t.u.v. (triplet utility vehicle) with the girls over the past couple of weeks. we took a trip to the mall, which was a lot of fun as we seemed to blend into the crowds and didn't draw too much attention. the vacuum salesman fascinated the girls and we are sure they know more about vacuums than we do. for easter, we rocked out traditional style and went with thad's parents to Qdoba for lunch. no mexican food for the girls this year but they did get treated to (awful smelling) sweet peas (that keegan disliked, samantha LOVED, and maggie liked). below are some recent pictures from our adventures:

jessica and hogan have not been able to see the kids for MONTHS now because of RSV season. so we decided to take a walk together so at least the kids could see each other.

As always, LOVE the pics!! Looked like the girls had a fun Easter. I hope Keegan doesn't rack up a hefty cell bill;) What an awesome idea to help raise money for the girls' expenses! We would also love to pass the "word" if you have a flier. We need another get together...I'll send an email soon w/ details:) Take care! Love, Amanda

HI there. Chloe looked at the pictures and thought the one of Keegan and her hat hair (and funny face) was quite hilarious. She gets a kick out of trying to figure out which baby goes with each name. Thanks for the update...can't wait for May!
