Miles Against Melanoma Race!

 This year we participated in the Miles Against Melanoma Race in memory of Chris.  We miss him so much and it still hurts so bad but it makes me happy to see that his death could be saving the life of so many others!
Along the race path, they have pictures of all the Angels that lost the battle to melanoma.  Chris had many signs along the path and it made me so proud!
Here are a few of the pictures he had.....

 

 While waiting for the race to begin, the kids decided to jump on stage and do a little performance of their own :)

 After the kids race, my kids and their friends did some volunteer work and handed water to each of the racers.  The kids had a blast doing this, although it did get out of hand a bit!

 At the end of the race they did a balloon release where you could write a note to your loved one to be sent up to heaven.  The balloons also had a light in them to make them glow in the dark, and was super cool!

We had a great time and it was so nice to honor Chris!  And I was overwhelmed with how many people participated in the race in memory of Chris!  I know he was smiling down on us all!
