April 2011 my mom and I headed to downtown Pensacola for an adventure of searching high and low for a $10,000 diamond ring. This year the stakes are up by $1000 and we are doing it again and joining in the Elebash’s 2nd Annual Diamond Dash. We had such a fun (and tiring) time last year we knew we wanted to do it again the next time. Well, the next time has arrived. On April 14, 2012 Team “God’s Girls Always Win” (otherwise known as myself and my mom) are hitting the ground running. We are going to be trying, again, to win the diamond so many others will be vying for as well. So let’s get to the details in case you want to enter yourself…although I would be grateful for less competition so it’s really okay if you just aren’t free that Saturday.
