Marty Draime is the incredible interior decorator and cake designer who made Joey's incredible birthday cake. Remember this....
Through making his birthday cake, Marty learned that we were celebrating not only his first birthday, but his first year. An incredible year of making it through his helmet, lots of new diagnoses and heart surgery in June. She called me a few weeks ago to tell me that she wanted to do her holiday table design in honor of Joey and for the organization we were raising money for through the Buddy Walk-- The Up Side of Downs. We were so honored and so excited that Marty would think of Joey and think of raising awareness for Down syndrome.
Through December 17th, you can visit the Montrose Ethan Allen and vote for her table. You can also give donations to the organization of your choice. Ethan Allen will match the winning table's donations that are collected and give them to that organization.
If you are out and about in Montrose, please consider going in and voting for Marty's table and visiting all the other amazing tables.
Joey, Tommy, Lauren and I all visited last week and voted. We met their wonderful manager and owner and many of the other designers. The store literally took our breath away-- it is beautiful, inspired and gorgeous!
'Tis the season!!!!

I've followed your blog for some time now. But it wasn't until this post that I realized we live in the same area! My Ben is just a couple months younger than Joey (who is just adorable I must say)! Maybe we will see you at the Upside of Downs Christmas party!
