The BeNETTAfit - a Recap

The BeNETTAfit last weekend could not have been more perfect. It was a beautiful day and the perfect excuse to hang out outside with family and friends. Netta, Matt, and Annetta were hanging out, and there was awesome music, food, crafts, and games. I had never met the Saggese's before, so it was great to see them and to meet the "belle of the ball," Netta.

And what's really awesome--besides all the fun that was had and seeing a community come together like this--is that more than $2000 was raised for the Saggese's. If you missed the event, you can still donate at www.greenbabybiz.com/benettafit, or buy a T-shirt at Green Baby Diaper Service.

Make Musical Instruments at the BeNETTAfit

Among the many fun activities at the BeNETTAfit this Saturday, November 12, there will be a craft table (run by yours truly of Tmuffin) where we will be making musical instruments so our kids can jam with the bands. (Who are we kidding? We're going to be jamming, too!)

Here's a little sneak preview of the homemade musical instruments we'll be making from repurposed materials:

The BeNETTAfit - Save the Date for a Celebration

On Saturday, November 12, 2011, Green Baby Diaper Service and Infinity Photography and Design are holding a benefit for Netta Saggese, an inspiring 2-year-old. She has a seizure disorder called Lennox Gaustaut Syndrome, which is a severe form of epilepsy. Scientists have not yet found a cure for the disorder, so the Saggese family must manage Netta's condition with a variety of medical treatments, some more effective than others. 


Here is Netta's story:
