Donor Spotlight
We are so grateful for the Princess Alexa foundation who has so generously donated a beautifully hand-painted dress up closet full of clothes for our kids. They also throw a fabulous Valentines party for us every year and it's one of the highlights of the year for our families.
This year the party was on February 13 and there was face painting, crafts, food, entertainment -- and of course, plenty of dress up clothes. Each child received a costume to keep. And Princess Alexa replenished our dress up closet in the playroom. Everyone had a fabulous time!

NFL Wives Compete for Supper Bowl Title;
One hour. 12 players. 150 dinners. 900 Servings to the Ronald McDonald House of Dallas.
At the Dallas-Fort Worth Dream Dinners AFC wives and NFC wives battled hours before the Big Game in the first annual Dream Dinners Supper Bowl. The competition aimed to see who could make the most family dinners in one hour. Watch the video to see how this amazing feat led to one team taking away the trophy and a $15,000 check to benefit families of critically ill children through Off The Field Players Wives Association. And all meals made during the competition were graciously donated to the Ronald McDonald House of Dallas!

Love is in the air again. In early October, Southwest Airlines presented its 25th Annual LUV Classic and Party benefiting several Ronald McDonald Houses.
With the proceeds of this event, SWA donated $200,000.00 to the Ronald McDonald House of Dallas. But that's not all they do for us. Check out this video of Herb Kelleher and Southwest employees talking about what they do and why they do it. Thank you Southwest Airlines!
