Relay For Life

Lots of pics to post here! We did the Relay For Life from noon on the 19th until noon on the 20th. Debbie, Sharrie, Tami, and I all did about six hours each of walking and stayed awake almost the entire time. Our team, SisterLove, raised over $2000 in just two months! We have already signed up for next year and are planning four big fundraising events.

Our camp site. Each team is given a 20x20 space for tents & awnings. I just bought this awning last month and am so happy that I did! The weather was just crazy...rain, wind, sun, rain, cooooold...it couldn't make up it's mind.

The very first lap. We invited anyone who wanted to walk the first lap to come out with us. Here (L-R) is Ginger, Kenna, Debbie, Tami, and Sharrie with Alex in the baby bjorn.

Cutie Alex!

Bette & Kenna (Michelle's mom & niece)

Sharrie (Michelle's sister), Kenna, and Bette in the purple "survivor" shirt.

Mason, Debbie, Vince, and Erin doing their first lap.

Sully gave a big hug to this bear...
...but Keats was only interested in a fist bump ;o)

Lots of teams have fundraisers at their campsite. This place offered "fishing" for $1. The boys could choose their own gift if they caught a fish (cheating was allowed...luckily!) What did they choose?...

...little boxes of goldfish crackers!

Keats & Sully cheering on their Daddy as he runs past...

Keaton was so proud to wear his shirt. He raised $100 for the Relay and he walked at least four laps on his own.

Ginger was one of the nice people who hung out with us for a while, willing to walk when she was needed.

Kathy & Lillian...two ladies I graduated high school with. Lillian walked the opening hour with SisterLove and later she caught up with Kathy, who was walking with her employer's team. (I've already hit Kathy up to walk with SisterLove next year!)

The Duggan-Miller Clan showing off their Relay shirts & Relay smiles. ;o)

To be honest, Sully's favorite part was probably the Tootsie Pops. Lol.

Tami & Sharrie walking as the luminaria were being set up.

One of the luminaria I made for Michelle.

The luminaria in the front was made by Keaton.

Our SisterLove luminaria.

Dawn, Sharrie, and Tami doing some laps Saturday morning when we were all pretty loopy.

Vince, Keats, and Debbie just hanging in the campsite.

Sully just looks so cute all squished into the chairs!

Keaton liked the "doggy doors" on Sharrie's tent.

Saturday morning and Sully was sleepy! Here he is relaxing on his cousin Erin.

And when Erin had to get up, Sully happily moved over to Uncle Vince's lap!

Multitasker: eating a HUGE piece of cake while doing some laps.

One of the very last laps: Dawn, Debbie, Tami, Sharrie, and that is Sophie in the front. Or "Soapy" as Sully calls her. ;o)
This is the final lap. Vince, Erin, Debbie, Sharrie, Tami, Sage, and Dawn.
