We had the best time celebrating Mickey Drinkard’s 50th birthday last Saturday! 🎉

In true Mickey fashion, the night was filled with darts, karaoke, barbecue, raffles, and even an auction for an amazing cheesecake—all while raising money for her favorite charities.

Mickey is an incredible friend and dedicated Heidi’s Kids volunteer, and we absolutely adore her. ❤️

Thank you, Mickey, for raising $500 for Heidi’s Kids! We love you and hope you had the BEST 50th birthday!
