Last night the kids and I attended the Carousel Fund's casino night.

The all-volunteer Carousel Fund holds its fundraising event annually for families in the Petaluma community battling to keep their children alive. They have made a huge difference in our lives and were critical support during the years Isabel was recieving chemotherapy treatment.

We didn't stay very long, just enough to say a few hellos. I wanted to bring my lovely, pink cheeked daughter to put a face on the kinds of children the fund helps.

The kids really liked the chocolate fountain and dipped everything they could in, pretzels, strawberries, marshmellows and mini rice crispie treats.

They had some very interesting items in the silent auction!

It was a nice time and showed me again what a caring community we live in.
