Renee volunteers for Make A Wish and John Hughes is an old room mate of Cris' who's 3 year old daughter, Erin, has (well now had) Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Cris and Renee were able to help her get a wish granted through MAW. Before they went to Disneyland to "meet the princesses" MAW (aka Renee, who was in charge of her wish) had a going away Ball for Erin. Tanner and I were the "official" photographers for the event.
Our friend, Rand, had connections to someone who had a horse drawn carriage that was able to come up to Logan and take Erin on a ride.
Erin and her aunt.
Cris was the only guy that dressed up and so he was Princess Erin's Prince Charming. She was SO excited to see him and the first thing she told him was "Look, I have hair now." It had been awhile since Cris has seen her.
Her specially made dress from a relative of Steve's I believe and Erin's mom Jill's hairdresser's mother (or some crazy connection like that.)
Cheering with big brother Caleb
Decorating cookies was one of the activities. This is her sister Cecily.
The only thing she wanted for her party was to blow out birthday candles. Mom and Dad provided the yummy ice cream cake.
This is Cris and Erin, and she's laughing b/c Cris kept saying "hot dog" which is a game between them that he used to do with her in the hospital when she was getting treatments to distract her.
with their prince
In our royalty outfits (finally got use out of that prom dress).
Afterwards the Hughe's came over to Nikki's house for a BBQ.
Bet you won't believe this, but one of Nicole's kids pretending some random object is a gun.
Erin thought Nik's flowers were looking a little under watered.
Saying good bye.
