Race for the Cure

So maybe I was missing you...  Or just craving to do a new post.  But I just couldn't stay away tonight!  And then I realized that I never got to write about Race for the Cure this year.  It was pretty awesome, hard to get up so early, but well worth it.  I'll let the pictures do the talking below.  All I can say is that I was proud to take part... the best part is, my company paid for my entrance fee, and guess what??  My company was THE largest group at Race for the Cure this year!!!!  That's pretty HUGE!  Raising at least $16,250 in entrance fee's alone, not to mention donations probably made.

I had to take a picture of the Columbia Store as we were walking by!  

Sooo many people...

Look at who joined us!

How cute is this??  "For my Gam Gam"


They walked like this for a while... He was strong!  

These are the lovely ladies I got to walk with!  Me taking the picture.

So, that's my wrap up of Race for the Cure.  I loved walking with my friend, her mother and my mother.  What is it about mom's that makes them talk non-stop? Well, I guess the daughters can talk and talk too.... Fun times, my favorite part...  sneaking out before the end of the race to go grab breakfast at Kell's (a great Irish Pub in Portland!)  If you haven't done it (the race, not Kell's, all though you should do that too.....), you should do it next year.  It is very inspiring, and you will be surrounded with strong, caring individuals all for the same cause!  Pretty Rad!
