We were honored to walk with my mom last night at the Blackfoot Relay for Life. She is a cancer survivor of 5 years and after she walked the "Survivor's Lap" and released her purple balloon
we all joined with her on the 2nd lap, the "Caregiver's Lap."
She has always wanted to walk with her grandchildren by her side so we were happy to fulfill that little dream. Callie came from Utah and Ryan and No'el were there too. We missed Emily and Jeff who are vacationing in Virginia.
This is a picture of a luminary in her honor. We are grateful each day that our mom/granny survived cancer.
