Even though it was just practice, I brought along the camera of course.

I took none of these pictures myself, but I just had to share!

The Baton Rouge Children’s Advocacy Center held their Second Annual Celebrity Waiter Fundraiser on April 16th, 2008!

Each year they line up a list of celebrity waiters, led by “Head Waiter” Coach Les Miles.

Gordy Rush was emcee for the evening, and priceless items were displayed and auctioned off.

The BRCAC is a non-profit organization that provides services to child victims of sexual abuse. They offer a child-friendly setting for child interviews and on-going therapy, in addition to followup support for their non-offending caregivers. The overall goal of the BRCAC is to reduce any further trauma to the child; they do this by partnering with the various agencies that investigate, treat and prosecute child abuse cases. They serve East Baton Rouge, West Baton Rouge and Iberville Parishes.

This year we raised more than $75,000 compared to last years $25,000.

It’s rounding the 3rd year of my good old powerbooks life and I’m taking him in for his last round of care this week. Since there are no apple stores in our great state I’ve had to totally back up everything in order to prepare for his departure.

Before he goes though I’ve been meaning to post some much requested birthday party photos.

This party was amazing. January 19th and FREEZING. I’ll post pictures of the amazing project put together by my father and some great friends, but in the meantime these are the pretty ones. Since geaux is still dead (grrrr), I’ve not been able to post fun pics as much as I’d like. The only photo in this set not taken with my Rebel is the “loot” picture which was taken with my powershot SD800 simple point and shoot. I took about 100 pictures with both cameras.

So enjoy these photos but keep in mind that the night before this party I was STRESSING big time over the weather as I knew it was going to be FREEZING the next day. All it took was one distressed phone call to one caring father and the end result was an encased patio with heaters going, an inflatable inside, and about 20 VERY happy kids. The beer was flowin. Good times had by all. Again, these aren’t even the cream of the crop.
