Good morning.
Happy Monday morning from beautiful British Columbia - just here in the Vancouver airport waiting for my flight home.
I am not sure I can even begin to express how excited I am about the fundraiser badge. Watching it on my phone over the last few days - obsessively watching it over the last few days - has been so exciting and crazy and wonderful (for some reason we could not get the internet to work in our hotel). You guys are doing awesome things - reaching that original goal of 1000...wow. Over the top cool. Thank you.
Autism Speaks is also featuring the badge on their site: click here.
Five more days. Let's keep the momentum going, keep the numbers rising through the end on Saturday night.
Donna, Claudine and I have been here since Thursday for one of the coolest events I have attended: ARTistry. The thing that was so cool and different was the mixture of collage artists and scrapbookers. People who had never scrapbooked before were scrapbooking and people who had never done collage before we getting to experience that through Claudine. I think people left really inspired all around - I know I was inspired just by being in that environment of sharing ideas and techniques and different ways to tell our stories.
Last night after everything was done, Christina, Donna, Claudine and I watched Claudine's new DVD about using beeswax in collage - it was so cool. After I finish up my book I am planning to dive into some experiments and play. The video was great (especially after getting to spend the weekend with Claudine) - we especially loved the out-takes at the end.
Excited to get home today and back into my groove.
Thank you again for spreading the word and giving of yourself.
Wow... the beeswax techniques look so cool! How neat! I can't wait to figure it all out and try it for myself.

Hi Ali!
It was absolutely wonderful to meet you at ARTistry... I loved your class and had a great time chatting with you! Thank you so much for your kind words to my husband (the soldier) and I. I have already started my next 'evolution' albums - one about my relationship with my husband (inspired by a fellow ARTistry participant!), and one about my dog's life...
Once again, it was a pleasure to meet you and take a class with you.

Kevin was on one of the morning shows here in Minneapolis and mentioned you again. It is a wonderful thing that you do. Keep up the good work and I am still awaiting to see what you do with your Disney pictures :)

As always you inspire! Now, just to figure out how to harness that inspiration I get from you! Thanks Ali!

I am so happy that autism is getting the attention it deserves. I know my family is personally touched by it with my cousin having a severe form in which he does not speak. Continue spreading the word!
I really wished I could've been at Artistry but it was my b-day weekend and we were supposed to go down to Oregon of all places those few days.
Catch you next time friend.
