Kelly's Wish
August 28, 2011

Kelly was surprised by her family at BJ's Restaurant for dinner, then we gave her a few gifts to open.  The first included Taylor Swift T-shirts and then she opened one that included a Taylor Swift program.  When she opened the program she found her wish, 3 tickets to the Taylor' Swift Concert at Staples Center happening in only a couple of hours.  Following dinner we walked her outside where her ride was waiting to take her and her family to the concert in style, a Starz Limousine.  We surprised her with floor tickets in the 5th row and she was happy that her wish was coming true.

Lindsey's Wish
July 20, 2011

Lindsey wished for a shopping spree.  We granted her wish with the help of her Mom at Victoria Gardens.  Urban Outfitters was the first stop which had selected outfits just for Lindsey.  Then we went to Sephora's for a make over. Lindsey looked spectacular and enjoyed the experience.  Anthropologie was the last store which made Lindsey's shopping experience extra special with a personal stylist., Phil.  The two selected many outfits that looked adorable on Lindsey.  They brought in snacks and beverages just for Lindsey, it was an eloquent setting.  She had a wonderful time with all the Anthropologie staff and all the shopping too.  We ended the wish with a little lunch before heading home.

Derrick's wish was granted with a trip to Disneyland.  We granted Derrick's wish with a night at the Grand Californian Resort and southern California Disney 3 day hopper passes.  So Derrick and his family could go in and out between Disneyland and California Adventure.  We surprised him with a special Mickey Mouse in his room which had a fabulous view of California Adventure.  Their family was sworn in as Disneylands Honorary citizen.  We also surprised Derrick with toys and his favorite jello, pudding and juices.

Hunter's Wish
June 17-24, 2011

Hunter wished for a beach house for a week so that he could surf as much as possible to make up for lost time.  We were able to make his wish come true with a condo across the street from the beach.  His wish was made extra special with the help of local businesses since our entire budget funded the condo.  BJ's Restaurant on Main Street in Huntington Beach gifted the entire family a week of dining.  We were able to surprise Hunter with the help of his family and present his wish and gifts from the local merchants.
