The Children's Dress Up Closets are Open!





On June 25th we celebrated the first Dress Up Closets Opening at Children's Medical Center Dallas. Generous supporters, volunteers, family and friends gathered to make this day a celebration to remember. Young patients were given the star treatment as they walked down the red carpet that lead to a room full of dress up fun. Everywhere you looked there were princesses, ninjas, superheroes and cheerleaders all beaming with joy. It was a very grand opening indeed. A happy day - and Happiness is Healing.

It was an amazing party. I loved seeing the kids' faces as they chose costumes and special accessories. This was an awesome way to honor Alexa and Blake.

Great pictures! My son told me that he wants to go to this party tomorrow - he wants to find Jack Sparrow!!

I am so glad the closets are open. This realization of your dream will spread much joy to kids who need it most.
