Meet Jill



Jill is such an amazing girl that I have gotten to know over the last few months.  She is one of those people that you just feel like you've known forever.  Jill grew up with Marcus, so I have always heard stories about them growing up together, crushes amongst friends, nicknames, etc.  I met her briefly at my wedding, but then didn't have any contact with her for the next three years.  Back in the beginning of the summer Jill and I decided to go to lunch together.  I was so nervous to meet her (for more than the 2 seconds from our wedding day), and to be at lunch with her, without our husbands.  But the second I saw her we were instant friends and I knew that she was placed in my life for a reason.

Jill and her husband Allen have recently been told that without the help of invitro they have a very small chance of getting pregnant.  You can read more about their story on her infertility blog here.  They are doing all that they can to raise the money to do this.  They are going to be doing a huge garage sale on November 6th and a 5k run on November 13th.  Check out her blog for more details.  If anyone has items to donate for the garage sale let me know and Marcus and I would be happy to pick them up from you.

Jill is also an amazing photographer and is offering discounted photo shoots as another way to raise money.  Check out her photography blog here.  Jill and Allen are going to make wonderful parents and I just wanted to get the word out there so that if anyone is able to help, they can.

That is sweet of you to support Jill and Allen so much. I'm hoping to make it to the garage sale...
