Some pictures of the 2012 Benefit at Cartoons

Thank you to EVERY SINGLE PERSON that helped in ANY way to make our benefit a success!!  Jarrad and I are SO gratful for each and every one of you!! I'm going to start posting so pictures from that night, but there are a lot of them, so it's going to take me a little bit to get them all loaded on here.

As far as Emmalin goes, that day/night she did AMAZING!!  Jaci Velasquez took the time to actually talk with Emmalin, and Emmalin LOVED it!  I have never seen Emmalin pay attention to someone for that long.  Also, Emmalin wouldn't let go of Jaci's hand, she just kept squeezing it tighter and tighter.  Emmalin even talked back to her  a couple of times (in Emmalin's own way)!  This exchange between Jaci and Emmalin was by far, my FAVORITE moment of the night!  It was so special and something I will NEVER forget!!
