Race for the Cure

(Jana, me, Marlee -stroller, Lexy, Mom, Caitlyn, Emma)
Race for the Cure 2009

I am so exited to participate in the Race for the Cure 2010!!  Family and I are once again proud member of Treasure Chest.  Our team capt in Carol.  She is a friend of Mom and I worked with her alot on the campaign.  Carol is a breast cancer survivor for over three years (I think that is the timeline).  This will be by 4th year participating.  Mom has participated for 3 yrs.  Jana, Lexy, and Caitlyn will be their 2nd year.  We have added my 14yr old niece Kaylee to the team as well.  To make it really awesome would be adding my oldest sister Stacey.  We will see if we can browbeat her into participating.  I love the sense of community, support, and connection when you are there.  To see all the pink shirts (survivors) makes you so happy to see them.  It makes you want to cry when you read the tags "I run in remembrance of..."

I really wanted to take TJ this year.  But we are going shopping after, and while walking around to the booths, he would get crushed.  Maybe next year.  I am also excited because this year I have necklaces and braceltes that we can wear every year.  I got them on a great deal...only $2!!  For wearing them once year I thought it was a great deal!!

  1. I enjoyed doing the Race with my mom and sisters one year. We've done a walk here once for Easter Seals (disabled kids) and I think it's such an experience to do something like that for a cause, especially as a family!
