Giving cancer the pink slip!

Last Saturday the girls and I did the Race for the Cure Family Fun Walk. Jason was doing an all day canoe clinic with the scouts so luckily the Palmers wanted to join us! It was amazing...something I want to make a family tradition of. It was very emotional and sweet, many survivors sharing how many years they have been in remission and many people with loved ones and friends who had passed away from breast cancer. Cancer is an interesting thing....one day its just there. I was trying to explain to Olive that we were walking to help people who are sick... I hope one day she understands how important it is to stand by and support those who are stricken but such illnesses...and to be grateful for our own health! We had such a great time!

Sweet Evie along for the ride!
Even the local law enforcement showed their support!
Tough enough to care! One entire street was lined with bikers and their bikes...all sportin' pink of some sort!
This was only 1 of 5 races they had....the pink goes on f o r e v e r !
Across the finish line!
My little olive lovin' her gigantic pink balloon!
