Nie Nie Day
You may have seen the story on the news, or maybe even heard through this little thing we know as the blogging world. 
On Aug. 16, 2008 Christian and Stephanie (Nie) Nielson & Doug Kinneard, the flight instructor were in a plane crash in Arizona. Doug passed away after arriving at the hospital but Stephanie and her husband are in critical condition in the burn center in Phoenix Arizona. They both have substantial burns covering most of their body. They have months of surgeries and the medical bills are expected to be in the millions. To read more about their tragic story, click here.
I personally don't know Stephanie or her family. I frequent her blog, and it is through this that I know her. She has the cutest family that she truely loves and a husband that she adores. Reading through her blog, you will get a sense of her humor, her creativity, and her love for life.
