Last weekend during our Big Push Addie’s Angles completed much of the “to do” list. The construction of the back deck was completed (minus the railings), the drywall was installed, a new bathroom sink was installed, the rear of the house was re-papered and the siding cleaned and put back up, decoupage Scottie dogs as well fashionably grace the kitchen and an “Angel’s Garden” was installed outside of Addie's bedroom.
If you need some further inspiration aside from the photo’s in the slide show, Steve Lansingh took some beautiful photographs (like the garden one featured above) more of his photo’s can be found at Steve & Amanda’s Blog here and here.
If you have photo's to share please contact Michaelle (info listed below).

There have been so many volunteers who have stopped by to lend a hand in getting Addie’s home complete for her homecoming. Friends…..and friends of friends, co-workers, former school mates, neighbors, OLG parishners and a HN Nun, even former West Seattle residents who don’t even know Addie, just to name a few. We have complied a list however, it is incomplete and we need your help! If you have stopped by, even to say hi and drop off cookies, please let us know! Contact one of the volunteer coordinators below so we can be sure we have your correct contact information. We know you will want to be there for the........
Help us welcome Addie home and thank all of Addie’s Angels who have put so much into getting her new home ready. Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 28th! More information will be coming soon so check back often!
There has been a big push to get this home done and ready so Addie has a place to call her own. The community support has been unbelievable and the sheer amount of volunteers who have helped pull this together and have pooled not only their time but resources as well still amazes all of us. There still is however, a real need for donations. Aside from the materials costs and medical expenses there is still a mortgage that has to be paid on this home. There have been many ideas tossed around, bowl-a-thon, yard sale, spaghetti bake etc. but we really need someone to take the lead on this. If you have a want to chair and coordinate the fund raising or would like to be part of a fund raising committee or have a wonderful fund raising idea to share please contact Carrie at 206-878-6389 or at jncrasmussen@gmail.com.
