Thirty-One Catalog Party!


I am sorry to say but the Thirty-One Party for Thursday evening (10/27) has been cancelled. My son, Ethan, was admitted to Primary Children's Tuesday night and we will be spending some serious time here over the coming weeks. Please know that Ethan is doing great, no critical issues. He is really in the best possible place right now.

With that said my sister and Thirty-One rep, Kristina Leikam, has offered me the opportunity to hold a catalog party. The amazing part of this is that 15% of all sales from my party will be donated to Primary Children's. Additionally, if you book a show from this party 10% of your parties sales will be donated to Children's Hospital in Birmingham, AL. 

This is Ethan's 3rd stay in Primary Children's hospital and they have done amazing things for him. Without exaggeration, they saved his life in 2009 and continue to work so Ethan can one day live a life without bloodwork every other week, chemo infusions every six months, and weeks at a time in the hospital.

Since we no longer live in Utah the amazing doctors at Primary Children's referred us to Children's Hospital in Birmingham, AL. The doctors at Children's Hospital are responsible for the progress he continues to make. Having never given up with the many of failed treatments and willing to take calculated risks towards a healthy life for Ethan.

At this time specialists from both Hospitals have combined their amazing powers to figure out what continues to go on with our sweet Ethan and what to do to fix it.

Check out http://www.mythirtyone.com/leikam/ and contact Kristina Leikam @ 801.946.2875 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting            801.946.2875      end_of_the_skype_highlighting or kristina.leikam@gmail.com with your order or any questions. The party will be open until November 20th.

Your purchase is so greatly appreciated and I am excited about this opportunity to give back to the Hospitals that have given so much to us. Please keep Ethan in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you.

Just a swingin'

Because I am a Mom

I recently look advantage of Vista Prints free business card and created a Mom card. We are meeting a lot of new people here and I find myself scurrying to find a pen or shuffling through my bag for my phone. With Mom cards you can just hand one out and on your way! My ordered shipped last week and should be here any day!

Another trip to the Zoo!


When we were back in Utah for the summer we went to the Hogle Zoo more times then I can count. It was a ton of fun and Ethan was fascinated with their Zoorassic Park, which are Dinosaurs displayed all over the Zoo. This past weekend we went to the Nashville Zoo and we spent all afternoon trying to find the Dinosaurs. Towards the end of the day Ethan just started calling all of birds and fish Dinosaurs. It avoided a melt down when leaving so we went along with it.... Fishosaur amd Birdosaurusrex are now words in the Maquet dictionary.

Cute kids...
