It's Getting Closer...

For those who have been checking the little money meter you might have noticed that it went up. I would like to say a very special thank you to Ika and Boris Spremo, who donated fifty dollars to Toonies for Twins. There seems to have been a miscommunication so let me just say that the picture of Erin with her dog is at a training session. Erin does not yet own SOLOMON. SOLOMON is being trained especially for Erin so he needs to get used to her and how loud or quiet she is and whatnot. The garage sale is set for the 16 of May and the stuff just keeps piling up. I LOVE IT!!! And oh my gosh I have stuff to do. I really think that this garage sale will bring in at least 200$ and believe me that is absolutely fantastic! Thanks ya’ll!

Its Raining!

April showers bring May flowers. Well guess what...I LOVE RAIN

I Hate Mornings

I just wasted an hour of my life I could have spent sleeping. Darn.

Here it lies.

Things Are Happening...

Oh my gosh! So much stuff is happening. The garage sale is scheduled for some time in May, maybe the 16th but that’s not set in stone. As you can probably see, I added a lot more stuff to the site. I put pictures of Erin and Jade, and a picture of Erin and SOLOMON her dog. There is also a place to donate and a thermometer to show how much money has been raised. I have changed the goal to 2000 dollars because of the overwhelming response of good people who want to help. There have been soooo many donations for the garage sale and for that, I am truly grateful. I put my e-mail address on the website incase anyone wants to tell me something. Feel free to e-mail me. It’s kinda small so if you cant find it, its keirawatters@hotmail.com. If anyone thinks there is something I should put on the site please tell me. I know some people must be wondering how I am giving them the money so let me explain. This summer me and my mother are traveling to Washington to visit the Buckles and give them the money personally. We are also going to Utah to visit the Herrin twins. I am so excited! I have been counting down the days since last summer. But anyways, that’s not till August. Sigh. Ill write more later about more things coming but right now you’ll just have to wait…

Butterfly Money

Now you can donate! Yeahhh!I made a new little slogan for the site. Tell me what ya think.

Help Them Fly

Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder

Yeah. I know. It’s corny. But corny as it is its true. Im home! I missed my friends and my geckos, and I even missed school a little bit (a very little bit) but now I miss my family so its kinda a win/lose situation. Sigh, oh well. As I said before my family gave me some money for Toonies For Twins and I’ll have to add it up later because I have to unpack it first. Bye

The Fundraising Continues...

My uncle Paddy gave me 100 (!) U.S. dollars to go to Toonies For Twins. And a few more of my one thousand relatives have also told me they would give me a few bob.(tee hee, bob!)(money) But for now, that brings the grand total to.......one thousand, one hundred and five...I think. Thanks Paddy!

Ireland 2

I was wrong. My mother only knows half the country. The other half we are related to!

Ireland

Im here! Ireland is great, but the stupid time difference is throwing my internal clock way off. I am sooooooo tired! I have like 157 cousins and thats probably not as much of an exaggeration as it seems. On top of that, my mother knows the whole country so we never go any where without meeting someone she knows! Its very interesting.

PS: its 3:35 pm here!

Ok, so I’ve been thinking about making button mabobers to sell to raise awareness and I can’t decide on which design I like best so please comment on your favorite. I will try to make a poll but if it doesn’t work then just comment. Thank you!

The Mystery Commenter

There is a very mysterious person who has been following my blog whom I’ve decided to name The Mystery Commenter. (tee hee) I decided to make it my mission to find out who this person is. You know who you are…I can see you…and I will find you…OOGALIEMOOGALIE!

Urg

Sorry for not updating, it’s been a busy week. Lots of stuff happening. Anyways, after consulting the peanut gallery I feel I should mention that at my choirs winter concert 200$ was raised on admission fees. The rest was made by donations and a raffle with about 8 prizes. On another note, this Friday I am taking a trip to Ireland for 10 days to see my family and attend my cousins wedding. The one bad thing about it is that I have four geckos whom will have to be left behind:’( But I’m not worried because I’m leaving them in capable hands. The weather is really warming up and that means garage sale season is fast approaching! Id better start planning……some of the choir members were not present in the picture I posted earlier so I will have to hunt down the other one and post it. Well, that’s about it for now. Bye!

PS: HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY RILEY!

PSS:who is flymore100 ?

Choir

Sorry for the long pause between updates. I’ve had a busy week. Anyway here are the pictures of my choir. For our winter concert they picked Toonies For Twins to donate all the proceeds to. That concert raised over 300 dollars, which is a good portion of the grand total. Thanks guys!

Conjoined Birthdays!

Id like to wish a very happy birthday to Jade and Erin Buckles who turn five today, and to Kendra and Maliyah Herrin who turn seven. Ironically, all these girls are formerly conjoined twins born on the same day two years apart. Isn’t that funny? Most conjoined twins don’t make these brilliant milestones so congratulations girls!

Mischievously

Im posting this from school... Awesome!

Color Scheme

Just so it’s known, I’m not a girly girl and pink was not my first choice for the color scheme. I chose pink as the color for Toonies For Twins because more conjoined twins are girls than boys. Not that I don’t support conjoined twins who are boys, but there really are more girls.

We did it!

Oh boy, do I ever have news! Last night my mother went and e-mailed this link to everyone she new and Lesley Anderson (my newly appointed best friend!) has offered to pay the exchange for American currency. This is so great! I then went to babysit for a few hours and made thirty dollars! Of course that all went to Toonies for twins witch brings the total up to… $960 but oh, what’s this? I forgot the $20 my wonderful mother put in my box yesterday, which makes it $980. When I got home from babysitting my mother informed me that her boyfriend’s mother, Dawn had made a donation of $20 dollars…$1000! Oh my gosh, we did it! And by “we” I mean every single person who has ever made a donation or helped me with fundraising. Thank you!

E-fair

Sorry I didn’t update yesterday, it was a really busy day. At the E-fair things started out slow. REALLY slow. But then it got better and when I counted my money at the end of the day it was $60! As I said before all the money goes to Toonies for twins so that brings the grand total to...$930! Can you believe it! I had to check it twice I was so shocked. But really that’s only about $740 in American. But between the garage sale and the concert I think I will have 1000 U.S. I won’t stop till I do. Yesterday I got to babysit a ball of fluff disguised as a dog for six hours! That dog is so sucky, she is treated like a baby! Guess what her name is…Cupcake! :) Just thought id let you know. Ill post pictures from the e-fair tomorrow (or whenever I get them) Bye!

Sick day

My day started bright and early at 4 in the morning when I ran to the bathroom and puked my guts out. This would happen twice more before the decision was finally made that I would not be going to school today. I was miserable all day and very sore from puking. EWWW. No matter what I did today I could not get comfortable. I then decided that it was a good idea to go to choir tonight after only getting 4 hours of sleep last night. Wrong. I am so exhausted. Tomorrow at school the grades eights have an entrepreneurial fair. It’s a fair where we manufacture and sell a product. I made bracelets and all the money I make will be to help Erin get a service dog. I will post pictures and let you all know how it went tomorrow. I still have soooo much to do! Bye

PS: I really hate being sick:(

Bithdays, birthdays, birthdays!

Chelsey, Carly, Andi, Frankie and Keira

These are the pictures from the sleepover I had with my friends. It was a surprise birthday party for Frankie and Andi. There birthday is on the 20th but since Chelsey wont be here we decided to do it on Saturday. I made the names in the color of our hats so you know who is who. The twins had no idea we were doing this and the look on there faces when we brought down the cake was priceless. Those kinds of things are the real perks in life. When everyone left the next morning :( I had another birthday party to go to that lasted 10 hours! It was a blast; we all had so much fun! That’s why I was so tired last night and all I could give was a pathetic update. I got five more dollars last night for Toonies for twins witch brings the grand total to 865$...YAY! I’ll have the money in no time! My goal is 1000 but I think I might go over that. I’m not objecting. That would be awesome! I’ll write more later. Bye!

PS: HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATIE-ANN

PSS: HAPPY BIRTHDAY FRANKIE AND ANDI

Long day

So...tired...

Visitors:)

Hi everybody!

Chelsey came to visit from Tillsonburg! She is my old friend, but she is a ditcher and she moved away three years ago. Just thought I’d let you know. If you haven’t noticed the site is still a work in progress. I’m still editing. I’m having a garage sale in the spring and ALL the proceeds will be going to Toonies For Twins. Also I’m planning a charity concert to help raise money. This blog will be a combination of Toonies for twins stuff as well as stuff that happens in my life. There are two sides to this cookie;). Speaking of which Carly, Frankie and Andi (more old friends) will be here soon so I have to go, Ill write again later. Bye!

Keira

PS: I am a really bad speller

Toonies For Twins

Wow, my first blog. this is exciting! well I should probably tell you what this is. My name is Keira M.L. Watters, Toonies for twins is a corporation I began to help families with conjoined twins. Its still small now but one day it will help a lot of people. right now Im working on helping to get a little girl a service dog. She is a formerly conjoined twin who is paralized from the waist down. a service dog will greatly improve her independence. I hope if you are reading this you will decide to help someone too. It makes you feel really good! I'll post more later, I have homework to do!
