Pink!

Saturday morning (EARLY) myself, my mom, Bella, Tori and my cousin, Melanie headed to Houston to meet up with Donna and participate in the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Walk. It's a 5K, so not too bad, you would think. We got to Houston around 7, got parked and went off to find Donna in the midst of 32,000 other people. We did manage to find her pretty easily, which is a miracle.

The walk was alot of fun, but it was so crowded. You had to walk pretty slowly and just after the mile marker B started wanting out of the stroller and had just had enough (it took over an hour just to walk a mile because of all of the people!). We crossed over and walked the mile back and walked through the finish line. It was an awesome sight to see all of the Survivors and everybody out there supporting the cause. They had a special finish line for the Survivors. They would walk down a path and people were slapping their hands and then they had their own little archway to cross. They got lots of freebees too. I got pics of my mom going through the Survivor Path and I was so proud for her.

THE END!! :)

We're ready!

Sunday we took the trailer out to the lease and got it all set up. Everything seems to work really good and the generator runs everything at once, which we were a little worried about.

We are headed out there Friday night to stay the weekend in it. I am looking forward to it except that I have a crappy head cold and not sure if I am going to feel like doing anything...but, I don't have much of a choice. Saturday is my birthday and it's also the Burnett Reunion. I am pretty sure that my mom has a little something planned for me there or else I would be tempted to skip it all together.

So..here are a couple pics. They were taken with my phone so they are kinda crappy quality.
