March 26, 2013 Kids, it's getting to be that time of year: Easter. And I know when I was a kid, I looked forward to that basket just as much as I looked forward to the bigger crowds at Sunday Church.
One of my favorite events for one of my favorite causes is going on Saturday It's the adult Easter Egg Hunt benefiting the Child Safe Organization. Child Safe is a organization that helps children who have been physically and or sexually abused. It's a safe place where kids who have been abused can talk to a professional about what has happened to them in a safe environment. It is videotaped and sent to prosecutors and law enforcement so the kids only have to tell their story one time. It's a great organization and this is their biggest fundraiser.
March 20, 2013 One of my favorite holidays of the year is Easter. It brings back a lot of great memories. Being an Air Force Brat, I can recall doing a few Easter Egg hunts with the youth center or a few squadron parties or even at the base church. I also have the great memories of waking up on Easter Morning and seeing the eggs hidden around the house or in the backyard if the weather was good.
The St. Patrick's Day party at Dukes & Boots was my final party appearance for KIX 105.7. There were a lot of people dressed in green and pitchers of green beer flowed. I made sure to have a large helping of the corned beef and cabbage special too.
The pictures from Saturday evening are below. Thanks a lot to Amanda Balke Photography for sharing her photos with us. Don't forget to get registered to win the trip to Seattle from Dukes & Boots to see and meet Kenny Chesney.
