65 Roses

A sweet little boy back in the 60's tried to say Cystic Fibrosis and 65 roses is what came out instead.  Some children now say 65 Roses instead of CF because it is much easier to pronounce.

The 65 Roses event that we went to on Friday night was of course a success.  Everyone at the foundation does such an amazing job raising money to help find a cure.  They are very inspiring....


My sis and Tori told their story on stage and they did AMAZING. 


Tori (a.k.a Sista), you are such an inspiration to so many people.....
 



The famous songwriters/singers for the evening.  My favorite was "Waitin' On a Woman".  The singer on the right is Kelli Pickler's husband. 


The thank you note that Tori wrote:  Dear Phil, THANK You for HELPING ME!  Love, Tori
These wonderful people work at the foundation and help fight for a cure EVERY SINGLE DAY.
