NC Right to Life has a booth every year at the North Carolina State Fair. We had an AWESOME time volunteering at the booth and sharing our story with lots of people from all different walks of life! AnnaLeigh is now 15 and is stepping up and out of her comfort zone, sewing seeds of her own! (also pictured: Allen Morris, on the board of directors for NC Right to Life)
Our family had the privilege to attend a fundraising dinner for the Sav-a-Life in Calhoun County, AL. They actually performed a LIVE sonogram where we were able to see a baby in the womb AND hear the heartbeat! It was such a beautiful experience!
I began reminiscing how Beth, AnnaLeigh's birth mother, invited me to her sonogram when she was 7 months pregnant. At the young age of 16, Beth allowed me to record AnnaLeigh's heartbeat and sonogram video! It is one of THE highlights of my life! Here are some pictures of that incredible day.
Took several students to the March for Life in DC! 5 hours there, the rally, the march, then 5 hours back - Whew! Very tiring but very worth it!
Hubby says that I'm a little on the "dramatic side" so he took these pictures to prove it. (insert eye roll here haha)
This was such a special time for me. AnnaLeigh sang a song (she picked out) at the end of my talk and this Mama was crying her eyes out! What a gifted young lady she is becoming!

When living in Fayetteville, NC, God guided me to this pregnancy center to see what needs they had. They actually needed a sonogram machine so our Warriors for Life group at school got busy! Go read all about it in my section labeled "Bottles for BUFA!"
When we moved near Ahoskie, NC, we began "cheering on" this pregnancy center. Using our Bottles for BUFA campaign, we raised money for them on a semi-regular basis. What a great mission right in our backyard!
Every January at our school, we had a Pro-Life chapel. Several of the students spoke, we did quizzes, showed videos, and even did a pro-life play! I usually ended it with our personal testimony.
A few of my students (from the Warriors for Life club at school) took part in many activities during the 2012-2013 year concerning pro-life:
1. We silently protested in front of Planned Parenthood on Yadkin Road, Fayetteville, NC. This "life-chain" takes place all over America in October every year.
2. We took part in the "Pro-Life Day of Silent Solidarity."
3. We baked and sold cupcakes to raise money for the AAA Pregnancy Center in Fayetteville, NC
4. We conducted a canned goods campaign for Operation Blessing/AAA Pregnancy Center in Fayetteville, NC
