Thanks to everyone who voted for Darius in the Volvo For Life contest. We hope we advance to the next round and should hear something within the next week or so (fingers crossed). Now we're asking you to cast one more vote--this time for Tracy Seckler, Charley's mom. She is a national finalist for an award given by Cookie Magazine.
The Smart Cookie Award recognizes, celebrates, and supports mothers who are making a significant difference in the world. In addition to some high-profile honorees (last year, Sharon Stone and Cynthia Nixon were chosen), the award also recognizes an "everyday extraordinary mom," who is elected by the visitors of Cookie's website, as the people's choice. Please visit this link and vote for Tracy Seckler now. You can only vote once. If Tracy wins the online vote, $35,000 goes to Charley's Fund for DMD research! So, VOTE, and please tell everyone you know to do the same. Here's where to go:

Other news: We had an awesome housewarming party for Jamie and her family last Thursday night. It was a great turnout, and everyone brought food to stock the Weems' fridge and pantry (we'll post pictures soon). Kudos to Jenny Manders for organizing this wonderful evening of food, fun, and fellowship. And big thanks to Buffalo's for donating 100 wings. Yum! Jamie got some great gifts, and she and Darius want to thank everyone who attended the party and who helped build their house. They LOVE their new digs.
Know about it!
