On Friday night, Marshall and I attended a fundraiser for JWill Pink Village. JWill Pink Village was founded by our friend Jen Willard, who is a breast cancer survivor. We met her through Drake, as Drake was good friends with her younger son. The organization sews pillows for women who have had a mastectomy to protect their chests when the are wearing their seatbelts. They have been around for almost 8 years and have delivered over 9,000 pillows.
Drake's former classmates were the hosts for the event (along with one of their moms). Many of Drake's friends also attended which was fun to see. We had some good local Mexican food, learned about a variety of tequilas, made margaritas and had a gorgeous evening on the hosts' deck overlooking the FlatIrons.
As we left, I mentioned to Marshall that one thing I love about a true community is that you have generations attending these events together. It was nice to be supporting a good cause and sampling some really good tequila.
