Silent Auction for The Turner Family

Over the weekend, one of our own lost the love of her life in a tragic car accident. You can read more about it here.

We know many of us were shocked and saddened by the death of Julee’s husband and baby Preslee’s daddy over the weekend. It’s hard whenever a loved one’s time is cut short, but especially when it touches someone so young. And it has put Julee in the position of single parenting her 10-month-old baby girl, in a way that no one should have to face.

 We know that she’s surrounded by loved ones, family and friends that can love on her, mourn with her, and be there for her in ways that many of us can’t. But it has touched a lot of us in Blog and Twitter Land and many want to help in a tangible way. So here is a way that we can come together and honor Matt Turner and offer what support we can to his wife and daughter.

  Next week, October 15th through the 19th, we (Life in the Green House, Life Sweet Life, Knee-Deep in Munchkin Land, The Getts Times, SheSheMade) will be conducting a silent auction with all proceeds going to Julee and Preslee.
