Masters Week reminded us…we already hosted the best event of the season 🤭⛳💚🌸

A couple months ago we celebrated my sister and her husband with the most darling Masters-themed “New to the Club” baby shower for Baby Housholder.

Happy Masters Week to all to celebrate a tradition unlike any other!

Big day. Big crowd. BIG smiles. 🧡✨

We had the best time lighting up @officialbgsu as they welcomed 4,000–5,000 prospective students and their families for one of Ohio’s largest visit days! 👏🔥

There’s truly nothing better than seeing so many smiling faces next to our letters! 🧡

We’re so grateful to help light up moments that matter. ✨

Santa’s Helpers 2025 was a day filled with joy, hope, support, and pure Christmas magic. 🎄✨

Because of the extraordinary kindness of @hooverwells and every single person who donated, we were able to bring light and joy to families by providing the most wished-for items on their child’s Christmas list—along with many additional gifts to make this season even more special. The generosity of Hoover Wells is the very heart of this event, and it simply would not exist without their incredible support.

We have proudly supported 20 families so far and remain committed to continuing to provide Christmas magic for any newly diagnosed family at Russell J. Ebeid Children’s Hospital.

A heartfelt thank you to:

📸 Kylee Stewart (@419photos ) — for giving her time, talent, and heart to capture the beautiful moments of the day. Your support of Colton Strong Kids is something we hold close.

🎈 @bigballooncreations — for filling the space with warmth, color, and Christmas spirit, creating an atmosphere our families could truly feel.

🏠 Yark Automotive Group — for generously donating a beautiful, welcoming space for our event.

⭐️The incredible staff of Hoover Wells — many who donated personally and many who spent their day serving our families. Your commitment speaks volumes about the power of community and compassion.

❤️ Tony and Amy Corsini — for bringing this event to life and working side-by-side with us on every detail. Every gift and every moment were thoughtfully planned with our brave families in mind.

And to the brave, resilient, courageous families we have the privilege of serving—you inspire us in ways words can’t express. We hope this season brings you joy, comfort, and moments of peace. More than anything, we are wishing your families health and hope—this season and always.

We’re already counting down the days to Santa’s Helpers 2026. 🎄✨

Thank you, Hoover Wells, and thank you to every person who made this event possible. Your love, generosity, and compassion are making a real difference—and we are forever grateful.
