Relay for Life

What a truley remarkable event! Thanks so much to all who donated....our team was the top team with over $17,000!

I enjoyed the day with my friend Jennifer who today marks the one year anniversary to be cancer free from stage 4 melanoma. We ate our way through the day and enjoyed every bit of it!


Jake spoke at the luminary service and told Hope's story, as I sat with the boys and tried to swallow my tears. It was an emotional evening and even though the event doesn't end until 8am Sunday morning...I declared it the end to my day at 10:30pm.



Kids, big and small, enjoyed food, henna tatoos and hair painting to name of few of the activities to keep the event moving.
