Relay for life!!!!

Wow!!! What an experience! If you have never walked for the "Relay for Life" American Cancer Society, you need to do it. The ceremonies are more than touching, and it is so cool to see the Cancer survivors out there walking.

The Luminary ceremony is really cool to see all the bag out there lite up and so beautiful. I did take a few pictures of the bags that I had bought for my aunt, grandma and Wes's grandparents and his cousin. A went with couple friends who have a team. My friend Heidi and I walked 10 miles. It went by really fast and was so much fun! I think we finished up about 1:30 am. 10 miles might not seem like alot but to me it was great. What an accomplishment! I barely make it 1 mile on my treadmill everynight. I usually hate to walk. This is for a great cause and I can't wait until next year. I even called my mom to see when the one in Evanston is this year. She is walking in it with a friend of hers, whose husband had cancer and beat all the odds. They even had a child after his treatments. So cool!!


I am going to get a team together next year for my family and I would love for Wes's family to do it as well. I have an aunt who just finished treatments and I am so excited to walk to track with her next year. I stopped to visit her on my way home today and we are already making plans.



I also put in for a few of the raffles and I won a beautiful quilt! The funny thing about this quilt is, I brought it down to raffle off as a donation from a store that I love in Vernal. It is the "Quilted Hens." Jen who owns it, has been so good to me and I love the blankets that her and her helpers make. I had just picked up some that I had ordered and she gave me that one to take there to raffle off. I was so happy that I won it.






So if you haven't ever done this you need to at least once! It is so cool!
