You may have heard about the up-coming MiracleMakeover Video Reveal Party. We will be sharing the story of a little boy who is probably a lot like your son, grandson or nephew; he loves cars, trucks and trains. Charlie enjoys riding his bicycle, too. But, he is different than most eight year-olds in two ways: he has brain tumors and he leads a toy drive to help kids in chemotherapy to have happier holidays. "Charlie Santa" was founded by our hero when he was just five and in his first round of chemo. This is one of the reasons he was chosen to be an ambassador for kids with Neurofibromatosis Type1, and a recipient of a Miracle Makeover. For a little about Charlie and his family see the video below and/or click on the dark text here.... I hope you decide to write a post for the internet-wide party the week of August 12-18; posting on Facebook and leaving comments will help raise more money for another MiracleMakeover for someone in-need. Read all about it here..... or HERE and be sure to come to see the heart-warming reveal video of the new rooms for Charlie, Liam and Katie that will be here August 12-18. Read the story of his room makeover at Guideposts.org.
You can join the Makeover Reveal Party here and at: Pink Saturday, Spiritual Sunday, Metamorphosis Monday & Country Wings in Phoenix. These beautiful bloggers are party hosts for August 12-18, Reveal Week.There are already many of you that have committed to write a post and spread the word. Remember, for each comment left during the reveal week, WE donate a dollar to help Friends of Kids With Cancer and for another Miracle Makeover for someone in-need. Your kind comments -- our dinero!

Oh, they are so sweet. I just love little Liam! I can't wait for the reveal. Thank-you to Kelee and the team and all the bloggers that are hosting. Kara looks beautiful too! Her makeover looks fresh and pretty. So kind for the salon to donate.

Hi JuJu:
You are right, Liam is so funny and adorable! Kara looks simply gorgeous too, thanks again Muse Salon! It made such a difference in how she felt too. I know I feel like a different woman after a salon visit... probably because they have patched and primped me into acceptable again! That wall paint primer only works so long... :):) Can't wait for you to see the reveal...
Thank-you for your support Juju!
love, kelee

KK and Krewe brighten our world one family and space at a time with those Miracle Makeovers. I am also tickled Kellee will be there to catch Liam when he faints from happiness. May we all enjoy that reason to faint someday. Keep those smiles coming, Gang!

Susan and Bentley
