Santas Workshop 12/11/2022

We had a wonderful day building and helping at Santa's workshop. We set up magical scenes and helped kids have an amazing time with Santa, a real reindeer, a hot cocoa booth and games. The highlight was seeing all the tutus we personally made being bought and 100% of the proceeds going to Children's Hospital. Kids loved dancing around and having a wonderful time in them. Elsa herself loved them and bought one for herself. There is no better way to spend the holidays than bringing love and joy to those who need it. We enjoy seeing the true meaning of the holidays around us as it is always filled with love and beauty.

Children's Hospital Plano playground opening reception 09/24/2022

It was wonderful to be able to see Children's outdoor playground. The hospital is expanding and has added a beautiful space for kids to play safely outside. It is an awesome addition as kids don't have to stay in a hospital room all day. They can get treatment and run around outside. For kids that do not have a lot of energy to run, there are gentle swings and areas to sit. When siblings come to visit they can also play on the playground. Children's is amazing and always coming up with innovative ways to make life better for kids.

Volunteer Mckinney 08/25/2022

Lisa Hatfield nominated for Volunteer of the Year in McKinney, TX

"It was such an honor to be a part of the Volunteer Mckinney Gala. To be nominated as 'Volunteer of the Year' and to be surrounded with amazing people is humbling and my heart is filled with so much gratitude. An extraordinary lady named Donna Loughmiller was honored with Volunteer of the year and she is extremely deserving of it."
"The nomination itself was such an honor. The room was filled with awe inspiring youth through seasoned retirees to doctors who spend their time serving others. There were organizations that lift up special needs kids with love and enthusiasm as well as groups that ensure the elderly in the communities are cared for and feel loved and supported. It was such a beautiful night and a wonderful way to acknowledge all the good that is around us."

Lunchboxes with Love 06/25/2021

What a wonderful week! It's been a long year and a half but we are back to doing what we love. We spent time making comfort boxes and bringing them to Texas Oncology and Children's Hospital. It was so wonderful to be able to visit with the patients at Texas Oncology again and bring a little sunshine to their day. Seeing their smile while going through treatment is something that always warms our heart.

We ALWAYS love being able to also put together love for the sweet kids at Children's. They are warriors who inspire everyone. It always lifts our souls when we are able to bring a little love to others going through tough times.

Rainy Day Lemonade 07/01/2017

Thank you you so so much to everyone who came to our rainy lemonade stand!!!!! We had to move it inside but it was still great. We got to see some awesome neighbors, teachers and friends. It was so funny because my mom would scream when she saw someone and start hugging them before we could. Thank you! And thank you to everyone who always loves our creatures we make!!!!

Lemonade Friends 02/12/2017

Thank you to everyone who came to our lemonade stand yesterday. At the stand we met the sweetest, adorablest lady ever. Her name is Navida like Christmas in Spanish. She came to get lemonade and a creature to lay on for treatment. She has stage 4 breast cancer and needs all our prayers. Navida just started treatment and is in a lot of pain. Please everyone she asks to be put on your prayer list. Please pray for sweet Navida and her family so she will be in little pain and be ok. Seriously, she is so sweet. It makes us sad that she is in pain.
