MS Walk

Yesterday was the MS Walk I'd been gearing up for the last few weeks. For those of you that don't know, the MS Walk is something I try to do every year (assuming I'm not rather heavily pregnant at the time, which means I've missed it three times in the last eight years since we've started participating!). It's a way to raise money for treatment and research of Multiple Sclerosis, a disease which affects both of my parents currently, and which took my aunt's life when I was nine. The walk for our area was five miles, and we couldn't have asked for a better day for the event. I walked with my mom (pictured middle left), her friend, Mary(far left), and my friend/cousin-in-law-to-be, Jessica (far right).


I'd like to publicly acknowledge and thank the following people for sponsoring me in this event; I was able to raise the $250 I'd hoped to raise:

My Aunt Pam and Uncle Tom
My friend Kris
My cousin Tiff and her husband, Aaron
My friend Syra
My Aunt Tee
My in-laws, Dan and Michele
My daddy
and myself (LOL...I needed the last $25 to reach my goal!)

Another friend's mom said she would donate, but I didn't find out until after I'd turned in my money and pledge sheets, so I need to figure out getting another pledge envelope or something!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU to you generous people who were able/willing to sponsor me for this year's walk. Every dollar counts and you're making a wonderful difference in the lives of many people.
