Tomorrow is the Relay for Life. I am so excited... We are going to be decorating our tent this year as a MASH. I wish I had more time instead of last minute notice on decorating it but oh well. I am going to spray paint the tent to look camo, hopefully make a still??? Have a sign post saying Paris, Tokyo and Cure for Cancer 1 billion miles away something like that. A red medical cross, I was also thinking about getting rocks and painting them white and putting around the campsite. Have a dummy dressed in medical clothes??? Just some ideas that I am thinking about now, since I am unable to sleep. I guess we will have to see what I actually get done. I am excited and scared that this is my brother's 3rd Relay since he has been diagnosed with Brain cancer. I wish there was something that I could do for him and that he wasn't having to deal with this. It just makes me so sad to think with how advanced we are and that we still don't have a cure for this horrible disease.
Well I survived another Relay... We had so much fun even though it was raining, lighting, and thundering on us. I was so happy that my sister Michelle and her kids came down, and to spend the afternoon with my nephew Nathan was just a blast. I got some good pictures I will have to post...
What was really sad is how many kids were in the survivors group... That just broke my heart to see all these little kids who are fighting for their life. I learned that a good friend of mine her daughter was just diagnosed with Leukemia. She is only 8 yrs old.
But I was really glad to be spending the night walking for a good cause. I also loved spending time with LeeAnn and just being able to talk with her. I feel like it brought us closer together. I am looking forward to next year...
One other thing my friend Jarom Thurston ran from 6pm to 6am the whole relay, he ended up running 55 miles and he raised over $500 for that run. That is so awesome Jarom!!!
