Maggie Mae Maddin!
Khaki Maggie Mae by Sandy flew home with Candace to Las Vegas!
Maggie Mae joined Jimmy & Candace from Las Vegas! Jimmy owns a resturaunt there in Las Vegas Hotel California and Cantina! Candace said if we’re ever in Las Vegas, we know where to go, and they would get us in over at the restaurant and hook us up with places around the area. Hopefully a courier trip will lead us to the West in the future, and we can visit MaggieMae and her wonderful family there in Las Vegas (maybe when Candace gets her second)!
Candace also heads Create A Change Now, planting edible gardens and working with world-class chefs to bring nutrition to children. The nonprofit organization is literally planting seeds for a healthier generation through organic gardens maintained at schools in the Las Vegas area, and is cultivating an appreciation for the reality of true substance as children grow their own natural food, and are shown how to cook it up healthy and delicious through positive role models. This community project is intended to bring nutrition education back into our schools. With all the cuts recently, education has been on the chopping block, said Candace, and nutrition has been one of the curriculums dropped from classroom culture. The value of nutrition is a fundamental reality that is most important for children to understand now, as they form healthy decision making that will effect the rest of their lives. As a community, we must recognize the value of nutrition in shaping our lives for a healthier tomorrow, so that we may truly live a wholesome life. As society grows, lets not forget the essentials that make us who we are, and the healthy choices that promote life, not only for ourselves, but for the fruitfulness of our children as well. One day we may be able to get something started here in the Charlotte area!
Christi and Jake met with Candace at the airport to help her welcome home her new baby Maggie Mae aka Sierra!
"Ms. Christina, Christi and
Jake ~
We both arrived in Las
Vegas, an hour late, but with no issues whatsoever! She was an
absolute doll and never let out a peep! Once we arrived back at the
home, it was late, but Tiffany Jimmy and I sat up while she
entertained us for several hours. She then went right in her crate
next to our bed and slept the whole night. The names we had were to
keep her' Sierra' or change it to Maggie Mae. We were waiting to meet
her and then decide. Well, she is definitely our Maggie Mae! I wish
you could have seen the joy on Jimmy's and Tiffany's faces!!! I
personally, haven't wiped the smile off my face yet! I hope you all
know how much we look forward to a lifetime with her filled with much
joy, spoiling and companionship! Jimmy and I have played with her all
morning now, she went down for a nice nap, we played some more and is
now doing quiet time in a restricted area right next to me while I
type. What a delight she is!!!!
We will stay in touch as
promised! We go introduce her to Dr. Yach this afternoon - the whole
office is excited to meet her!
With much love & licks!
Candace, Jimmy and Maggie!"

"She is just a doll! We are
having so much fun with her. Jimmy doesn't even want to go to the
restaurant any more. Just wants to stay home with her and I! She is just
the sweetest!! I have a new toy and blankie that will be mailed off to
you - I really think that helped having a blanket and toy to send her
home on the plane with. She sleeps all night long and is doing just
great. She has a personality to die for!!! I will send off some photos
soon. I did post one on your facebook site. More later . . .Hello to
all!
Candace"
"Ms. C and Christi~
Quote me on this:
Oh My Gosh! We couldn't have
been matched any better with our new wonderful little girl, Maggie Mae!
Our 4 month Khaki Mini girl was the perfect match for Jimmy and I. It
was a bit unnerving adopting a puppy sight unseen and from photos on a
website. But knowing Ms. C and Christi read about our family in our
letter for consideration, we place our trust in their knowledge of their
babies and matching us up and boy, did they do well!!! Not only is
Maggie adorable, but she is a smart cookie too! She entertains us all
day until we are laughing in stitches, cuddles with us at night until
it's lights out and crate time and is excelling in her positive
reinforcement training sessions. I hope you both know how happy this
family is with our new addition and we look forward to sharing her
growing years with you!
Love 'n Licks!
Jimmy & Candace Maddin"
Sunshine Acres Happy Family Update on Maggie Mae Khaki Mini Beagle! 10/10/2011
Dear Miss Christina and
Christi,
Wanted to let you know our little Maggie Mae was spayed last week
and is doing great. She had to have her two upper K-9's extracted
as the baby teeth did not fall out. She now weighs 12.5 lbs. We
have one question for you:
Are all your pups as adorable
and loving as Maggie?? I keep telling Jimmy that if he
could sell this restaurant, we'll move back east and buy several
acres and just raise a half a dozen more minis! Honestly, she has
brought us so much joy and happiness and is the best addition to
our lives. I think she would tell you she's pretty happy with us,
too! We couldn't love her any more. Jimmy's favorite time of the
day is when we get in bed and she cuddles up on his pillow above
his head. He always goes to sleep with a smile on his face!
Hope you are well and happy!!! If you
ever got to
Las Vegas, CALL US!
Love & Licks ~
Candace & Jimmy Maddin
p.s. Christi - visit my website (www.createachangenow.org)
and see the gardens we've put in schools. We are currently working
with a school called
Whitney Elementary.
The principal Sherri Gahn was just featured on the Ellen DeGeneres
show as 86% of the kids are homeless!
