Our team, the Zurvivors raised just under $5K - and there is still time to donate - feel free to visit our webpage at www.relayforlife.org/mandarinfl/zurvivors if you're interested! The event has raised over $100,000 and had over 100 survivors in attendance. The kids had a blast (like always) - as did Chris and I - but we're ready for things to slow down just a bit! Totally worth all the work...but ready for a break!
In the middle of Relay was Zoe's dance recital...go figure! Although we arrived a bit after we were supposed to - and Zoe was sweaty and laffy-taffy covered, she did GREAT! She sat and had her hair french-braided (best $5 I ever spent!), did a great job with her tap and ballet routines and loved receiving her trophy at the end.
After the recital it was back to Relay. The kids actually made it until 10PM this year...and got to see the Luminary ceremony for the first time. Kudos to Chris for getting them home afterwards and into bed...rumor has it that while Chris was letting Rhody out, Zack laid down on the kitchen floor and wanted to sleep there...bedtime included carrying, bathing and soothing two exhausted kids. Thank goodness I'm married to the World's Best Dad - who will never get the compliment, because he doesn't read my blog :)
Whew, what a day that was!! Such fun, thanks for including us!
