Relay for Life

A few weekends ago Brandon and I had the chance to participate in Queen Creeks, American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life.

This is the second year that I have done it. It is such an incredible night.

Out little Relay raised over $50,000 to fight cancer.

Because we raised so much the mayor of Queen Creek shaved his head that night.

The highlight of the night though is the luminaries and the candlelight laps. Where all the lights in the stadium are turned off and everyone walks to remember those who have had to fight this fight. It is so touching to read all of the tributes on the luminary bags along the track.

Here are a few more pictures off my camera that night, but to see some incredible pictures from a professional go here.

This last one is Brandon and Mason about 4:30 when they finally crashed.

The theme this year was “Lights, Camera, Relay” so every team picked a movie. Ours was “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” that is why all the crazy clothes, hair and make-up. Some of the pictures are from the lip sync we did.

You can catch a part of the amazing lip sync we did here. ENJOY! (you have to scroll about half way down the page to see the post the video is on.)
