What a special day! The Love Your Sister Foundation gathered at Lyneham netball courts in Canberra today for The Big Heart Project.
Her Royal Heartness Connie and her brother His Royal Logieness Samuel Johnson are attempting to break a world record of the most five cent coins in one place whilst raising money for cancer research – and they are doing a mighty fine job so far!
