There's not a lot I can say about the Relay for Life. It was hot, it was so much fun, but it was also a very very emotional day. I had a great time and laughed a lot (especially around 2 and 3 am :) ). Thank goodness we weren't right above the sprinklers, that's a 4:18 am wake-up call I got to do without.
Smiles for Miles was named Best New Team and we raised more than $8,000 for cancer research. What a wonderful and giving group of friends we have!
Morgan was a dream. She spent nearly 12 hours in the heat and sun and only complained a little (when she was told she had to leave ;) ).
Morgan and I grew our hair out to donate for wig-making. Yesterday was the big day to get the cut! Morgan cut off more than a foot, and mine was about 10 or 11 inches. Here are before and after photos.
We moved Mom into her new apartment and while looking out the window to the back, we saw Rocky Raccoon sitting on the fallen tree cleaning himself! Isn't he cute?
In the rain. Last year we were packing frozen ice bottles for the Memorial Day program. To beat the heat, they scheduled it for earlier in the day, unfortunately, Mother Nature wasn't told of the change in plans. It was cold and drizzly, but always a nice way to honor our veterans.
