Great Strides 2012

This cheesy boy and I enjoyed our time at Great Strides this year. He got fussy quickly though so we didn't get to stay until the end but nonetheless we had a good time while there. He had a m&m donut, made a sign to show his support for Aunt Coco, went inside a PINK firetruck and saw some great friends! We ended up reaching our goal of $150 which we were happy about and came up with some ideas on how to raise more for next year.

Partners in Crime

Since little girls(not the ones pictured above) we have been best friends. We were inseparable, always together, writing notes, getting in trouble, having to sit in the hall, having to write our names in the black book only one of us didn't do it like they were suppose to do so said person got a treat at the end of the week when they weren't suppose to and yes it still ticks me off! Cheater!! :)  She moved away in the seventh grade. We remained friends. She would visit me, I would visit her. We locked each other(okay okay, I ran inside and locked the door) outside with lizards on our(HER) back. We went to parties, cleaned puke off moms car with the window washer at the gas station. Introduced each other to ex-boyfriends. Kept each other from stripping naked, kept each or well SAID person from letting her mom know she was piss-drunk when she just wanted to keep on talking to momma. Lost our baby turtle in the backyard, poor turtle - he survived the road trip from Missouri to Texas and then we just toss him outside expecting him to wait around for us. We've been to Sea World and got to pet and hold penguins. Summer vacations at the lake house. Get away snacks at Plain Jane's.  We've been through a lot. We've shed tears, shared laughs, survived grandma farts. We've done it all and most of all we've remained best friends from 504 miles apart and after 24+ years we are still just as close.
Did I mention that she is here visiting this week for my son's birthday and that we are going to get into so much trouble!! Oh let the good times roll!!

This chick is why I raise money to help find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis. Can you help? It doesn't matter if you have a couple of dollars, five, ten, fifty, hundred. Whatever you have to give helps! You can donate online by going to my great strides account. If you don't like giving online you can give cash, check, or money order and I will turn it in on the day of the walk(not until 5/12/12).
THANKS!!
