We had such a good time at Light The Night. Scott, Haley, and I all carried illuminated balloons and walked down from the met almost to 150 and back in Stephen Hand's memory. I collected $945 to go to research and aid to people with leukemia and lymphoma. Stephen, my best friend, passed away Feb. 1, 2008 of lymphoma at 27 years old. We miss him very much. The fundraiser was great! There was live music, food, and all for such a good cause. Stephen's dad came and he carried a gold balloon all the way to 150 in Stephen's memory. Maybe next year we can hit $1000! Thank you for all that donated. It meant so much to me and his family.
We were even on the news! We were spotted in the walk on CBS 42 here during the 10pm newscast.
Haley also really enjoyed the live music and oreo cookies!
