Friday night was Woodward County Relay for Life.
Last year I participated with my sister and had a blast. Stayed up all night, walked 13 total miles...GREAT TIME! Well this year, I was all for it. Our Mom Connection group decided to do a team because we lost one of our members in the fall to cancer. Then Kaci was diagnosed with cancer and it hit really close to home. So I raised my share of money and I was going to walk. Then I hti the 6 month preggo mark and it was really hot...so please forgive me for not walking all night :)
Our team! Way to go ladies!

Kirstie, Lizzy, and I walked the corporate lap! Thanks SPC for supporting us!

I did walk 1/2 a mile and stayed until 9:30. I took Lizzy with me so she could have some girl time. She was itching to walk the minute we arrived. We did the corporate lap first and she kept asking me if I was tired, apparently I wasn't walking fast enough for her! During the team lap, she ended up running and coming back to me several times! Glad she had all that energy!
The highlight of the night for her was the basket auction. There was a new girl's bike and of couse she HAD TO HAVE IT!!! Well I ended up bidding on and winning it for her! She was THRILLED!!! Her birthday is coming up soon, so it worked out perfect!
Our team raised $2500 and had a great time! Most of the ladies stayed all night and I am so glad I was able to participate even if it was just a little bit :) Don't worry though, this will become a Reid Clan tradition...so look out for next year!
