On 10/26 we finally got to light the night and we quickly found competition in that effort with mother nature. The weather was perfect for a bit, but just a minute into the walk the skies opened in full force. Fortunately for us we had not started to walk yet and so we were able to get everything together and head to the garage as quickly as we could. Unfortunately we still got drenched and weren’t able to get a full team picture. So the plethora of pictures in the slide show below will have to do for this year. We did get a special shout out for our Boo Cancer tshirts that we had made up during the initial presentations where we got on stage and told a quick version of Cutler’s story. A special thank you to everyone that helped get ready, raise funds, and made donations to our team effort. To date, we have managed to raise $8,209 and that doesn’t include the matching donations by some companies putting us at number 3 for individual teams in the North Cities area. It’s by far more than I anticipated and I can’t thank everyone enough. You’re all now off the hook for at least another few months before I start the next campaign for LTN 2014.

Fall 2013 School Pics
We got the boys pictures from school back this week and Mason’s is probably my favorite of all time…no offense intended towards Cutler. We let Mason pick out his outfit for pictures and he shocked us with his desire to wear a tie. We got it for him for Grandma Boo’s funeral last month and he has really taken to looking nice. Of course his outfit of choice is usually sweats, but at least for photos it was the tie.
Another Successful Lemonade Stand
I realize this post is long overdue, but I wanted to thank everyone for another successful lemonade stand. We raised over $1700 on the 19th at our annual stand. This year our entire tball team worked together to build an amazing stand as seen in the picture above. We saw an increase just over $200 from last year, which is pretty impressive given the late start we put into this year’s. All in all it was a great day/evening to hang out with friends and family and to watch the kids go crazy as usual hopped up on sugar. We are already looking forward to next year and making plans to get a better head start to improve and go over $2000.
Thanks to everyone who helped in this effort, especially the Carleys. We couldn’t have done it without you!
