My heart swells with happiness and pride! I can’t stop smiling after our fundraiser last night at Buffalo Wild Wings. Seeing everyone, having the support of a community, family and friends, is a motivation like no other!!!! Looking around the packed full restaurant I see…..

A table full of Home Depot employees and families. Knowing the love and support that they have given us is incredible. Our new extended family that were excited to have….

Corpsman, our dog in training, stole the show!!! He was such a good boy, while kids were running around him, random people coming up to him, and even getting his tail stepped on!!! He was the perfect ambassador…..great job Lynda!!!!

My Mom and Dad, who drove far just for dinner (and to see their little girl!).  The random people who I saw walking in with our coupon, that I didn’t know. Ben’s mom , Carrie and her friends showing their support.  Jacob Krebs, who introduced himself to me, asking about an Eagle Project he would like to for Stiggys Sanctuary. Justin Mulholland, of Edward Jones, decided to have his Birthday dinner with his family at BWW  just so he could support us too!

But the BEST part of the night , personally, was seeing all of Stiggys family together…the Veterans, their wives and their kids. My heart swells with happiness and pride indeed!!!
