My friend Shanda and her husband Bo lost their little girl this past September. She died unexpectedly during her nap. She was almost 3. Her favorite stuffed animal was a poodle she named Poowoe. The Pink Poodle Pillow Project was started as their way to honor Bailey and spread her love to other children. Today, the PPPP held Poowoe Gras 2012 and was able to deliver 232 pillows and blankies to Our Lady of the Lake Hospital.
Bailey with Poowoe...
I met Shanda and a group of family/friends at her sister's house in Prairieville to tag, organize and load the pillows for delivery.
Green frogs, purple hippos and yellow duckies for Mardi Gras...
Let the tagging begin...
All organized and ready to be delivered...
Had fun with these ladies, all for such a great cause...
Arriving at OLOL...
Look at all those Poowoes...
Our group who were able to see the smiles of about 100 patients as they received their Poowoe. What an amazing day, I know Bailey was smiling too!!!
