Relay for Life- Feet's for Teats Team

Kaleb and I joined our friend Annette's Relay for life team called "Feet's for Teats" on Friday 6/13- Sat. 6/14. The walk was from noon until noon. We had teams members on the track all 24 hours. Our team raised $3400.00+ for cancer research and was the voted team with most spirit. Kaleb walked the track, rode in the stroller and then decided to try out running. He ran around the track 6 times, that's a mile and a half. What a trouper! There was a survivor march, an illuminate ceremony in which bags were put out with candles in honor or in memory of friends or family effected by cancer (Kaleb's bag was in honor of his teach Miss Cindy) and lots of activities, and music. It was a wonderful way to spend the day, get some exercise and support our friend Annette, who is a survivor herself. We look forward to next year and would love any help, participation or support!

Abby-
How awesome that you did that. I am sure that Kaleb was tired after all that running. Maybe he has found his sport...
