Monday Morning Motivation

   

                                                    

I know that for many of us, Monday Mornings are a rough start to the week... but they keep on coming! That's why I came up with the Monday Morning Motivation so that I am assured to start the week off in the right frame of mind.  So grab your favorite cup of coffee and a comfy seat and join me for the Monday Morning motivator...

As we approach the 4th of July, I am thinking about Independence and what it takes to get that.  Most importantly, I am thinking of those men and women that have helped us gain that Independence.

                                        

I have been blessed to be friends with a beautiful military family that has a mission in life to help take care of others... military families in particular.  The Folds of Honor Foundation was founded in 2007 by Major Dan Rooney, a former F-16 pilot, golf course owner, PGA Professional and USGA member. A Major in the Air National Guard and a decorated military aviator, Rooney has served three combat tours in Iraq. After returning from his second tour, Major Rooney witnessed a profound situation that drove him to create the Folds of Honor Foundation. The Folds of Honor is an organization that works to take care of military families that have had loss or injury due to their service.  Raising money to send children of fallen soldiers to school, help famillies keep their homes and try to carry  on a normal life after pain and tradgedy is just part of their mission.

I am s grateful that their is a way for me to be a part of this amazing journey!! Patriot Shoootout Indiana is a golf outing and gala used to raise money for the Folds of Honor.  There's an evening of dressing up, bidding on Silent Auction items and then listening to tear jerking stories of how this organization have helped so many families.  Next day raise more money by golfing! Winner of the Indiana Shootout gets to go to the Patriot Shootout in Oklahoma to golf at Dan Rooney's course with celebrities and men and women who serve or have served us proudly.  AMAZING EVENT! AMAZING ORGANIZATION!

Join me August 22, 2014 at The Columbia Club; Indianapolis,  IN for the gala and then

Thank you, God for opening my eyes to see another day!

I know that Monday mornings can be a tough thing...and darn it, they keep coming around.  This is why I decided that I need a little motivation to get things started off on the right foot.  So grab your favorite cup of joe, a comfy seat and join me for a little Monday Morning Motivation...

This weekend I was truly blessed to be in the honor of real life heroes.  Men, women and children that have given the ultimate sacrifice...their life! Saturday evening I attended the Patriot Gala which was to benefit The Folds of Honor organization.  The Folds of Honor takes care of  military families of fallen or wounded soldiers.  On this evening, I heard from a mother of five who received that dreaded knock on the door saying that her fighter pilot husband would not return home to their family.  Not only did his F16 get shot down his body was not with the wreckage.  Left without the love of her life and five children under 10 years of age what was she going to do?  Folds of Honor gave this family the support that they needed to wake up day after day and then they gave each child a full scholarship for their future college! Ginger now has a support system of people all over the world and the freedom of knowing her kids futures are taken care of.
