Mia & Clare

Welcome to 90's night!

One of the cool parts was that Mia got to meet Sugar Ray

aka Mark McGrath since he's doing a 90's concert after the game.

SO FUN!

Pics pics pics!

Too cute...

Literally just hanging out on the baseball field.

Thanks to friends who took these for us!

Waving to the sweet lady who put the words on the back of our

shirts for free! Mia said she'd wave to her, so sweet.

Go Mia!

I'm sure Matt always thought he'd be the one to be pitching 

out there in the field...but no, it's Mia!

After, Mia had the catcher sign the ball and Mark McGrath!

Ok, mom...seriously...what are you saying??

Haha, so fun!

Nice to meet you Mark, you rocked the concert, loved it!

Elevator selfie!

After the D'Backs sadly lost to the Cubs, we went outside

to the Pepsi VIP area for the 90's concert.

We had SO much fun!!! 

Mom and Dad might have had a little too much fun while feeling

old. Haha! Thank you so much to everyone who made this so awesome for us!

ESPECIALLY the Mathew Blades Show!!

BE SURE to watch this VIDEO of Mia's interview on the radio

and Mia throwing out the 1st pitch!! SO MUCH FUN!

Mathew Blades Radio Interview

Mia was asked to do something so fun by the 

Mathew Blades Show 96.9 The Mix!

We know Mathew from a previous radio interview for

Banner Cardon Children's golf fundraiser tournament

for the school in the hospital.

Mathew and Priscilla are so sweet and they are helping get

the word out about 'Mia's Marrow' and how easy it is

to do a simple cheek swab to potentially save a life.

They asked Mia if she could stand in for them at the D'Backs 

Game and throw out the 1st pitch - for 90's night!

Ummmmm heck ya!

Thank you Mix 96.9 and #iheartmedia

Mia sure loves coming down to the radio station, it's so much fun!

Banner Children's Golf Tournament - Mia The Emcee

Mia was asked to help be the Junior Emcee along side of 

Mathew Blades from the Radio...to benefit the Banner Children's

Hopsital School Program...where no kids are left behind!

It was a great day, no too hot, up in Scottsdale at the JW Mariott

Wildfire Golf Club.

Mia and her school hospital teacher, Miss Virginia <3

Mia actually drove around the golf course and thanked 

everyone for participating and donating to such a great cause!

She's actually a really good driver!

We had fun together :) 

GO Mia...

We caught up with Tyson Nash from the AZ Coyotes...

he would like to have a Be The Match Drive at the 

Coyotes to help get more cheek swabs into the registry.

Mia is a star everywhere she goes!!

We need to find these photos!

It really was a great event.

We love the JW Marriott!!

Mia and Mathew Blades doing their thing!

Working the crowd for sure...

All the teams played great!

It was hard to miss these guys out on the course...

you could see them a mile away!!

Haha!

Mia got to meet Randall McDaniel NFL hall of fame football

player turned teacher...SO cool. What a very nice guy!

Thank you to Banner Children's for allowing us to help with

fundraising efforts at the hospital we've been at for over 14 years.

We love you so much for keeping Mia alive all these years!!

VERY THANKFUL for all that you do!

Banner Charity Golf Tournament

Mia was able to help her hospital, Banner - 

Cardon Children's Medical Center...

say thank you to all the people supporting

and donating money to go towards schools

in the hospital. Mia was so happy to help!

Charity Golf Classic 2016

Grayhawk Golf Club is realllllly pretty.

Mia entered a coloring contest during one of her transfusions...the contest was:

What does school mean to you?

She drew this...and her artwork ended up on all the

volunteers shirts. SO cool! Go Mia.
