So here I go to catch you up:
The Chick-fil-A Desire to Inspire Dinner Series was created last year as an effort to live out the Chick-fil-A Corporate Purpose, which is " To glorify God by being a faithful steward to all that has been entrusted to us, and to have a positive influence on all who come in contact with Chick-fil-A". Bryan and I have been married 22 years and have lived in this community this whole time. We have 4 daughters who have grown up here and we truly love our community. I decided it was time to do something big and to do more than our everyday "Chicken Selling". So about a year ago the vision of a Dinner Series came together. In November we were blessed to be able to host our inaugural Dinner Series featuring Coach Tony Dungy! It was a huge success and it was truly inspiring as Coach Dungy spoke about being Uncommon. We also highlighted a few stories from our community and it was a special evening for sure.
After being on such a high, it was hard to gather our thoughts on who should be the next speaker. We knew we would continue the series, but who would be that next great inspiration.
We believe we have indeed hit the mark with our next Dinner. It will feature Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy, who are the parents who inspired the movie The Blind Side. This event will focus on Sean and Leigh Anne sharing their personal Blind Side story and how they believe we should all be looking to "not let untapped potential fall through the cracks in our community". We once again will bring the focus to also highlight some great stories from our own community.

Great job with the blog. The Dungy event last Fall was inspiring and encouraging. I can't wait to see the Touhys and hear their story, first-hand. You and Bryan are making such a difference in this community, you are an inspiration all by yourselves. Thank you!
