Team In Training – Inspiring People

Last Saturday our friend Ginger, invited us out to meet and talk to the incredible people raising money for the LLS as part of running for the Team in Training that Ginger is now serving as a mentor for and still raising money and running and running and running.  Cutler and I woke up extra early to embrace this opportunity to tell our story.  It wasn’t easy to get through it as it is still rather painful to discuss, but it was well worth it to see and meet all of these wonderful people raising money for such a worthy cause.  I believe Ginger said that they have currently raised over $18K, but don’t hold me to that as it was very early.  One person in particular, Dave, is in training while battling his fourth go with CLL.  Rather than be called the team hero, he prefers to go by the team mascot.  I was ashamed to not be running with them, but one step at a time.  First I will need to work on waking up that early.  🙂  Cutler was a big hit as he sat on the ground playing with his truck, as usual, and calling out the garbage truck as it pulled by.  It truly is an honor for Cutler to be represented by Ginger in this manner, including another full Marathon in December.  Go Ginger!

He Loves His Trucks

I mentioned before that Cutler’s favorite word is trucks and while his vocabulary is continuing to grow past this word, his fascination with them grows stronger by the day.  Below are a few pictures from Sunday morning where he found a new use for his pickup.  In case you can’t see, he’s stacking his mini waffles in the bed.
