So Relay for Life was this weekend and we had a blast!! My team, the Luke Enlisted Spouse Club raised over $3000.00, since our last event in April with Relay we as a team have raised almost $10,000.00 not to bad for a small group of enlisted AF wives and friends!!!!
I am just still exhausted, every muscle in my body protest every time I move, I seriously think they hate me!!!
The event was fun, we won best camp site, we had a country theme tent, all I know is I never ever want to see another haybale for a really really long time, we had to make sure we got up all the stray hay that wondered onto the field/track, and then we really didn't have anyone to help us move the hay from the field ot get it loaded back up to take away, now each haybale is 100# and we had four of them, so me and another one of the girls, dragged those suckers on the tarp across the track,while about 100 Army guys were getting ready to do a PT test and watched us, did they offer to help , no way!!! Think that is why my muscle scream every time I move.
Here is our camp site..
Here is the Luminaria bag I made for one of my favorites mom who passed away. The luminaria ceremony is a very moving touching need tissues time, the bags we all make get a small candle put in them, then they line the track, at a certain point of the night all the lights are turned off and only the candles are lite, they do a video with pictures that we have given them to music then we all nake a silent lap around the track in honor/memory of our loved ones and friends who has beat the horrible disease or who have gained there wings.... I bawl like a baby every time.
Miss-ter relay is hte most hilerous part of the night, you get one guy from your team to dress up like a female , they walk around the track and get money in their pocketbooks, then they geton stage and do a fashion show. The one with the most money at the end wins Miss-ter Relay and gets a prize...
This kid was funny and wasn't even on our team, but he took a seat on our saddle and almost showed us more than we wanted to see
This was the winner of the night LOL.. he was too funny, and we think they have too much spare time at the Fire house, cause he was way too good for this part
and my whole team.... we were exhausted, sore, cold but we had a blast and raised alot of money and we get to start all over again for the next one in April.... so if ya wanna support me by donating, let me know and I will send you the link
