Master Your Mind Master Your Body: The Adventures Continue

We had a great week off! Spent some time with the Lutz's, as I've already written in previous posts. But something fun and meaningful we did was a run for 'Race for the Cure'. My mother had breast cancer so I ran for her and for all others who have survived and passed on. Each person running got to make a bag for a loved one who either passed away from cancer or survived it. It was a normal white lunch bag that you decorated. Then filled with some dirt and a candle put inside. Once it got dark we lit all the candles. It was really neat, but sad. Neat, because there were bags around the entire track and some on the bleachers that spelled out HOPE then later changed to CURE. But, it was sad because there have been so many that have passed away. Altogether though, it was a lot of fun. Addie, Kate, Joe, and I walked for a long time. We probably walked/run seven or so miles. Anyway, that was a great time and a fun time off.

After we set up the wall and bubbles in Hillsboro, Joe and I went Ice Skating in Portland! It was super funny and fun. Joe's ice skated before, but he said it was when he was like seven years old. So, it was pretty much his first time! I had to video him! Enjoy!

Well we finished, yet another fair...Hillsboro, OR--check! It was a pretty good fair. Weather was fine, typical temperatures and humidity. Blah, I don't like the humidity. Anyway, I had some of the young men from church there to help me out. There names are, Garrick, Alex, Stuart, Tristan, Jared, and a young woman named Cassidy. They did a swell job! Glad I was able to have so much help. One of the days, Alex's family came. I let his two brothers jump on the bungee for free. We were slow and it was no big deal. His Mother was super grateful that I did that for her boys. So grateful, that she made me Butterscotch banana bread!! Which, I've never had and it was delicious! That made me feel really good. Anyway, it was a good, fast fair! Here are some pictures!
