On May 9th my sisters and I participated in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. This was my second 5K this year. Lindsay, Carly and I all signed up together through Lindsay's work. This time I decided to take Sammie and Eston with us in the stroller. Lindsay had told me that due to the mass amounts of people that come out to do this 5K, you end up walking anyway. Sammie and Eston were so excited that they got to go do a race with mom this time. They woke up early to come with me and just ate breakfast in the stroller.
We raced in honor of Gram, who has fought cancer a few different times, some of which was breast cancer, and lung cancer. She is amazing and continues to be a support and inspiration to me.
About 2 miles into the race, Sammie and Eston wanted to get out and walk with us. Sammie actually ended up walking about 3/4 mile on her own and wanted to do what we were doing.
Both kids were very happy and enjoyed themselves.
After the race was over (it took us 1 hour) we went and enjoyed the snacks and party that they had going on.
I enjoyed spending time with my sisters and hope to do something like this with them again.

Great job! Keep up the good work love that Sammie and Eston joined in.
How fun! I really am bummed I missed this one. I am doing a cancer survior one in IF on June 6, but I really would have like doing this one. And how fun that the kids got to go with you. Maybe next year I can bring Lydia and Wyatt and they can all walk together! Ever since the spiderman pics, Wyatt keeps asking me when he can go to my race and see spiderman ;)
