What an inspiring day! Having the opportunity to meet these incredible heroes is something I will never forget – it was truly humbling and heart-warming to see the passion and drive that they all have to make a difference. I feel honored to have been able to be a part of this amazing day.

What a wonderful report. I have been checking the tweets in hopes that a post was ready. Glad that so many wonderful heroes were in attendance. You have inspired the rest of us and we hope many others will follow your lead.

Misty you are more than welcome. I think you know how I feel about my buddy Evan. :) Just wish everyone could have witnessed and experienced what we did on Saturday. -Gabe

You couldn’t have said it better Gabe. Our son Evan truly enjoyed the whole experience, sans the makeup and dress. We can’t thank you enough for availing this opportunity to him.

As we pulled out of your drive, I felt tears well in my eyes. I too was touched by Austin. Depsite obstacles that plague him daily, this child has a true contentness in his spirit. I was able to spend a good deal of time talking to him and for that, my life will be forever changed. In some strange way, he found his way into my heart and has found a place that will remain his forever. I am truly blessed to have met him. I now know where Calista receives her inspiration to do the wonderful things she does.

Thanks again for putting on such a wonderful event.

Thanks are certainly not necessary – we thank you for making the effort and introducing us to your wonderful family. I hope we can make other excuses to get together with you all. :) -Gabe

I can’t thank you enough for such an incredible experience! My family enjoyed a nice little vacation, which was much needed and Austin and Calista had a wonderful time. They didn’t want to leave and have talked non-stop about making the trip again next year. It was definitely well worth all of the fundraising we did and the 5 hour drive to be able to attend. We are all so inspired by all of the incredible heroes. All of these kids have so much passion for their causes. I am still in awe of all of them.
