So last Saturday I had the honor of attending the annual Make-A-Wish Gala. And not only did I get to attend, I actually got to play the piano for the program and during dinner. The Utah chapter of Make-A-Wish had it's 25th anniversary this year so they selected a special wish for each year. Mine was chosen for 2002! So they had a special tribute to me as well. It was such a great experience! I was so impressed with how generous people can be even though times are tough. I also met a few other previous wish kids, which was way fun. We bond instantly because of all we've been through. It's indescribable but so awesome. Anyway, here's a few pics!
I had to take my piano down to play on because the stage was small and the hotel wanted to charge a lot of money to use their's. There were probably 150 people there. Easily.
Me and My Dad :)
My wish granters! I didn't know they were going to be there and they didn't know I was going to be there. I was SO glad to see them though! I'll never forget these guys.
My dessert....It was so delicious I had to take a picture... :)
Apparently I couldn't make it to the bathroom to wash my face and take out my hair. Just toooo tired after such an eventful day.
