A Purple Picnic for Epilepsy

Over spring break, Auntie Kirsten and I put together an impromptu purple picnic for our girls, a fine fuchsia feast that included two bite cupcakes and purple Peeps.

It was a deliciously fun time for a good cause.

Remember to wear purple on March 26 to support epilepsy awareness and link up your purple posts by March 28 here.

A purple picnic is fun, and since it’s for a good cause, it’s even better. 🙂

Love those photos and the grins in the first pic. Great reminder — I wasn’t aware of the 26th as being Epilepsy Awareness Day.

What a wonderful thing to do for your girls, and for us……to help raise awareness for this. I had no idea!

Beautiful photos promoting a wonderful cause. My neice had chidlhood epilepsy. She supposedly ‘grew’ out of it and thank goodness has not had any episodes for a few years.
Thank you again,
Meryl
