Almost time to walk

Today is Monday. This past Saturday A and I did the 5k race for the cure in OKC. This Friday morning we begin the 60 mile journey through the Dallas area. One step at a time we will help find a cure for cancer. I have been crying at the drop of a hat lately, so I expect many tears this next week. But I know it is going to be an unbelievable journey, walked with thousands who have been touched by this horrible disease.

Going home

Grandma, Peg and Denise headed home this morning after a wonderful weekend visit. I am a little sad as I love the time I have with them. I am so grateful to Denise for making the trek with them because they would have never been able to come without her. I had such a great time with them. And I am so glad that each of my kids got to spend time with their great grandma. She loves them so much, but I know another trip down here is just not possible for her. I want to get our family up to see her as soon as we can. Draden thought Grandma was so cool, and Caleb and Julia just enjoyed coloring with her and snuggling with her. That is really all she is capable of, and my kids loved every minute. I am so blessed to have a grandma like her, and so glad that at least Draden will have a good memory of her. We must get out to see her so Julia and Caleb will have good ones too!

Less than two weeks until the 60 mile walk. Some dear friends got me up to my fundraising goal, so I am all set! I am so excited!
Peace and a pop tart!
