wanna help?

As some of you may know, my grandmother, "Mimi" passed away a couple years ago after her 8 year battle with Leukemia. She had a love for traveling, holiday decorating, costume jewelry, and her family... She was an incredible matriarch to our family, and we miss her so much. But, she was a believer in the Lord, so we know we'll see her again someday. I bring this up because:

My cousin, Stephani, is running in the Nike Women's Marathon in San Francisco as a member of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's (LLS), but she needs to raise the money first. The main goal for all of this is to raise funds to help stop leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and myeloma from taking more lives. So, if any of you feel the urge, please help her out by making a donation (big or small). If you can't help monetarily, please consider praying for her that she gets all of the funds she needs to run the race.

Here's a picture of Matt (Steph's husband), Steph, and Mimi before she got sick.

We're so proud of her for doing this for Mimi! Here's the link to Steph's fundraising profile page if anyone would like to donate. Any little bit helps :)

To learn more about Mimi's story, just go to my old blog and search "mimi". There are a bunch of pictures and some videos of here there too...






Thanks to all of you for your support!
