The Walk

WOW. Is basically all I can say about this past weekend. It was amazing. I am in shock and awe from the support that I received. Our team had over 30 walkers and we raised a total of $5,077. The whole event was incredible. I cannot thank everyone enough for coming out and walking with me and donating to this organization that is so dear to me.

I mean seriously what do you really say when you realize that you have all of this support from all over.  The event was very inspiring. The amount of people that light up the night was phenomenal. They started the evening off by having a head-shaving ceremony. Anybody that wanted to show their support for those going through chemo/radiation or dealing with cancer could have their head shaven. There were 2 little boys about 10 years old up there it was adorable. Then we went and took pictures in front of the art museum. Then the walk started. With our balloons switched on (most of them worked....some better than others) we walked a little over a mile. Boat house row was beautifully lit in red for the occasion. Somehow we managed to stay together for the most part.  Here are some pictures of the walk!
