Thank you SO much for spreading such fun Easter cheer at the hospital this Saturday! The patients and families LOVED the Easter bunny – what a great idea! I’ve attached a few cute photos.

Thank you for always bringing such wonderful gifts and treats. You guys go above and beyond with each visit and it means so much! Cannot wait for your next visit.

An All the Time Thing

On February 1 the New England Patriots will be taking on

the defending champion Seattle Seahawks in the Super

Bowl XLIX.  The teams will be going head to head in an

all-out effort to take home the Lombardi Trophy which is

named for the legendary Green Bay Packer coach Vince

Lombardi.  Coach Lombardi is one of the most quoted

coaches of all time and one of my favorites to quote as

well.  I thought some wisdom from Coach Lombardi

would serve as a great pep talk as we are not even halfway through the first quarter of 2015.  —  Luke

“The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.”

 

“It’s not whether you get knocked down, it’s whether you get up.”

 

“The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.”

 

“Confidence is contagious.  So is lack of confidence.”

 

“Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit.”

 

“Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we will achieve excellence.”

 

“The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.”

 

“The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have.”

 

“People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defenses, or the problems of modern society.”

 

“Winning is not a sometime thing, it is an all the time thing.  You don’t do things right once in a while. . . you do them right all the time.”

Let’s hear from you, our employees.  Leave a comment on this blog post as to who you think will win the Super Bowl and what the score will be.  The team member who chooses the winning team and comes closest on the score wins $50.  Good luck!

Spreading Christmas joy

LB 2

The halls of LeBohneur Children’s Hospital were lined with elves of Montgomery Enterprises last Saturday. The patients of LeBohneur were excited to receive their huge stuffed animals. Many smiles were made that day thanks to the work of all of our team members that made this happen. A special thanks to those team members who made the trip: Kim Wright, Jonjon Suggs, Meredith Green, Janna Tolar, LaTonya Nichols and Amber Lee.  — Luke

I would like to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving Day.  I am very thankful for each of you and hope you enjoy your day with family and friends! – Luke

T … Turkeys, table-spreads, being together,
H … Happiness and homes to protect us from all weather,
A … Aunts and uncles, a reunion in Fall,
N … Nieces and nephews, family members all.
K … Kind-hearted kin coming over for dinner,
S … Surely you’ll have fun, but you won’t get thinner,

G … Gourds and pumpkins, mouths open wide,
I … Indians and Pilgrims we remember with pride,
V … Very special times-there could even be snow,
I … Imagine what it was like at Plymouth long ago,
N … Never forget how the settlers led the way,
G … Giving thanks and blessing this special day.
