Relay for Life 2012

So I know I have been absent for quite a while... Just kind of enjoying all of my kids end of the school year activities, summer, and our big Relay for Life event that we had last weekend.

If you dont know about Relay for Life or you haven't ever visited one in your area, I highly recommend it... I guarantee you have been affected by cancer in some way... For me, so many loved ones in my life have been touched by the horrific disease... That is why I relay every year!!!

Here are some pictures from last weekends event which was a great success. Our event raised over $104,000 and our Team raised $11,000 of it! Go us!


Every person you see in a purple shirt is a cancer survivor! 

Ruth (survivor) and Andy found each other after loosing their spouses and now he is battling Mesothelioma. 


My dear friend and Hodgkin's Lymphoma survivor


Our friend Carrie (survivor) thanking her husband for being her caretaker

Cristy with her family friend Gene (survivor)


Our friend Misha who is a mother of 8 and a cancer survivor!


My Boogie Relays for so many that are close to her. 







Kelsee relays for her Uncle and her family friend. 


T relays for his grandma who is a survivor.







Trudie Relays for her husband who lost his battle and for her daughter in law who is a survivor. 






Emma supporting her mom (survivor)




Joelle relays for her father (survivor)








Each of these bags of light represent someone who has been touched by cancer. 

I urge you to check out a Relay for Life in your area.
