As Micah mentioned, I'm Melissa. I am one of the interns here at BigHouse for the semester. Allison, the other intern, and I have loved getting to know Micah, Susannah, and the families involved at BigHouse. We are both seniors at Auburn majoring in Human Development and Family Studies. Hopefully I'll be able to keep you up to date with all of the things happening around here!
Last night we had a restaurant night at Chappy's Deli to benefit our "Glitz, Glam, and Gowns" event. If you haven't heard about this event, we would love for you to get involved. "Glitz, Glam, and Gowns," which I like to call GGG for short, is on February 25th from 10am to 2pm at Trinity United Methodist Church. Prom is such a special event for high school girls, and we don’t want them to miss the opportunity to attend their spring dance. Our goal for this event is to have prom and semi-formal dresses, shoes, clutches, and jewelry available to the girls at no cost. Along with getting a dress, we want this event to be a fun day of pampering for the girls, with hair, make-up and nail demonstrations. We would like to encourage them throughout the process of getting ready for their special dance by having volunteers help them find a dress and prepare for the night while fellowshipping with other girls. Each girl will be offered snacks and drinks while they shop as well as a goodie-bag on the way out to help them re-create the look for their event. We are thankful for Chappy's generosity for donating the proceeds from last night's dinner to our event. If you would like to get involved with GGG, let us know! We are very excited to love on our teen girls.
As Micah mentioned, we have our Kid's Night Out coming up on Friday. We'll post some pictures and stories from our birthday celebration next week!
