RELAY FOR LIFE UPDATE...46 LUMINARIAS!!!!


Our numbers continue to climb and we love that! I had 80 luminarias delivered today, so we have plenty here to work on. That's on the list for tomorrow.

Today...wow, we had a terrific time. We left for NYC in style around 11am in the limo. Jules picked us up and escorted us right to the doorstep of the Lion King! We had about an hour to waste, so we walked over to the M&M factory. They have every color of M&M there, you can't find them like that anywhere else. We all got a mix, plus 2 small gifts and it was $63!!! For M&M's!!! I thought Dave was going to faint, that's NYC for you.

The play-it was incredible. If you live in the area and have never seen it, it's definitely worth the trip. We had very good seats, not too close and not too far. It was mesmerizing, right from the beginning. We all enjoyed it, eating our $63 M&M's. Jules picked us up right outside the theatre and whisked us home. Here are a few pictures from the day: Hannah on the trip there- Hannah's picture from inside the limo- Hannah and Colby at the M&M store- Hannah on the way home in the limo- All of us with the limo-

It was a very fun day for all of us, thanks to a donor from Schneider Children's Hospital. I understand that this man is very large contributor to Schneiders and sends kids and their families to shows about twice a month. I know he does a lot more also. We are very thankful for his generosity and thankful that Childlife asked us to be the family to enjoy the trip.

Hannah,
Lion King was really good. I saw it a few years ago with my cousins'. We just took a normal car to New York City, not a limo :[
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Hi Hannah and family,
I am so glad you got to go see the Lion King in New York! We love to see shows on Broadway.
You are also doing great with your RFL luminaries. We did our Relay last month and it was such a great event. Our team really helped raise awareness of Childhood Cancer. It was also a lot of fun.
