Ally will be celebrating another MIRACLE Birthday on February 2nd, also known as Groundhog’s Day. On her real birthday, we will be going to Disney on Ice with godmother Auntie Tammy, John Reno, Melissa, RN Maribel and I. It is going to be amazing. Trying to get special seats at the Allstate Arena or a short meet and greet with a princess, but won’t find out till Tuesday afternoon. Keep your fingers crossed.
I have decided that I am going to do a mini, simple Birthday for Ally. She deserves it!!!! Even though, we will be having a BIG party every August for her 1/2 Birthday (when there are less germs), I think with all that she goes through, she deserves TWO parties.
ALL HEALTHY Family and Friends are Invited!!!
(Please let me know asap if you plan on joining us, so I can plan. Sorry for the late notice.)
What: Ally’s 4th Birthday Party
When: Saturday, February 6th at 2 pm (pizza, salad and cake served at about 3 pm)
Where: Ally’s Home – 3614 N. New England – Chicago, IL 60634
(can’t come, feel free to send a quick card for Ally to open)
Who: Any family and friends that would love to celebrate Ally’s special day with us. You MUST be healthy though. Sorry, we can’t risk any germs at all. Even if you have a cough, stay home or I can supply a mask.
Optional: Guests are invited to bring a simple appetizer or dessert to add to the yummies. This is not required at all. Please let Tina know if you’d like to make/bring something. Thanks in advance.
Gift Ideas: Ally is a girly girl. She enjoys crafts and DVDs. We LOVE new dresses with matching tights, hair things, accessories. She wears size 5/6 dresses and shirts, size 4/5 pants, shoes size 6 toddler. Please, no hoods since she mostly lays down. We are also beginning to save for some special BIG, DREAM items for her – suspension sling system to play ($300-$500), possibly a wheelchair joystick ($4,000), maybe some things for her hot tub and a new tray for her size 2 stroller/wheelchair. Donations can be made to Angel Allyson Fund NFP.
RSVP: Please try to RSVP by Wednesday 2-3-10 so we can plan ahead, but last minute guests are welcome. Home # 773-283-7211, Email – tina@angelally.com

I am sorry that I will not be in attendance to her party. I live in Texas and not able to do much traveling due to lack of funds. Also have been having asthma attacks and sore throats as of late. I would however like to send her a birthday card if it would be alright. Please let me know so that I can get it in the mail asap. Hope you are feeling better as well. Debra Jouglard Russell.
Ally would LOVE to receive a card from you. It’s so neat to have friends from all over. Hope you are feeling better soon.
