The foundation spent a busy weekend fighting to raise awareness in our local area. We spent yesterday at the Fairless Hills Babies R Us educating those shoppers who braved tropical storm Hanna to shop at Babies R US. We spent this afternoon and evening speaking to parents, grandparents, even great grandparents about our mission to protect the innocent from unsecured furniture. There was a great turnout at The Rockledge Night Out today and most of those who visited our booth knew our story and had heard of our mission. We were happy to be able to hand out tethering kits from Hangman products to those whose furniture needed to be secured. B and E each had a good time with their friends walking the Pike. E did such a fantastic job watching his little sister that I promised him a Bakugan tomorrow. B continued helping out with the Foundation by helping Big B yesterday and today setting up and taking down of our booth. After tropical storm Hanna had passed and the rain had quit for the night as I was letting the dogs out in the back I noticed a big spider working diligently spinning a web. Now, don't get me wrong, I do despise the critters when I find one in the house, however I really do appreciate the beauty of web when it is found outside. We are now entering spider season as Fall tries to make its way into our area. With Fall will come the spectacular webs found anywhere from your car windows to a surrounding bush, attached from a tree branch to your front door, (so that you walk thru it in the morning,) or hanging from your porch gutters. The picture of the web was found outside our kitchen door Saturday evening and it is still there now. E and I tried to capture its beauty but the stinking camera does not do it justice. The web is beautiful...the spider..well it's still a creepy, crawly critter that I hope does not find its way into my home. Enjoy the pictures. J

The spider got Jack's attention! Go figure!

Pics are great.. you guys need to pat yourselves on the back and be proud of all the little lives you're saving.... well I do know a little angel is constantly working hard from above too. But the foundation has come such a long way and I'm really proud of all you have accomplished.
