Well, the month of June has almost come to an end, and that means the Big Brothers Big Sisters 25/25 promotion is drawing to a close. I’ve got to admit, I had visions of booking the calendar full with people taking advantage of the promotion and of me writing a check with many zeros on it to Big Brothers Big Sisters Columbia Northwest. Alas, the response wasn’t quite that big, but I am proud of what we did – together with two very willing families, I’m glad to announce that I am going to be writing a check for $90 out to the organization this week.

I do want to say it’s been loads of fun working with them, I really believe in what they do and I encourage you, even if you didn’t go through me to help them out, to find out more about what they do and either volunteer or think about sending a small (or big!) donation. I also hope we can partner together again in the future for more promotions like this!

Because every post is better with a photo, enjoy this little teaser from my weekend in Seattle. This is my dear friends Angie and Sam’s little guy, Manny, and he’s full of personality. You’ll be seeing more of him on the blog in the next couple of weeks. Have a great Monday!
