Relay for Life









My mom and another cancer survivor Debbie got a team together of family and friends and walked all night to raise money for a cure for cancer. If you can not tell our theme was "Rockin& Rollin for a Cure" We dressed up 50" style and won most of the team awards. My mom and my cousin Teresa offered their haircutting services for anyone who would like to donate to Locks of Love, an organization that make wig for those who lost their hair during treatment. As you can tell above many were moved to do this. After the group picture was taken many others came forward too. Some and just lost loved ones to cancer.
I would have to say Josh won the prize for best dressed, being Elvis. Kenzie and Ruthie were the cutest in their poodle skirts but definitely were the first to go home. The rest of us stuck it out and walked all night.
We had a great time and our team also won most laps walked.

Isaiah 43:2

When you pass through the waters

I will be with you:

and when you pass through the rivers,

they will not sweep over you.

When you walk through the fire,

you will not be burned;

the flames will not set you abaze.
