5 Weeks...Fuddruckers Fundraiser!...10/18-24

I had my Fuddrucker's fundraiser this week! A group of my high school friends and their families came out to support me and eat lots of squeezy cheese! Woohoo! They brought their moms and daughters, which was pretty cool!

Wendy let me "borrow" her younger daughter, Abby, to help me with the raffle sales. She was a pro!

Laura and her mom, a one year survivor!

Class of '93, still close after all these years! Love the pink shirt, Steve!

Fuddruckers is graciously allowing us to host a fundraiser at their Mira Mesa location on Thursday, July 16th. For anyone who brings our flier or mentions us to their server when they order between the hours of 11am and 8pm, Fudds will donate between 10-20% of the sales from those orders! The more money they make from us, the more that the donate to us. Kim and I EACH need to raise $2300...that's a lot of burgers, fries, onion rings and shakes! Please bring your appetites and all of your friends! Pass the word. I can email you a copy of the flier, just leave me a comment on this blog. See you soon!

It's Not a Rumor--150 Days to Go!

I was looking at my page on the Komen site and it said that the walk is 150 days away...wow! Really?! I know that's about five months, but it will FLY by! I'm walking with the training group about once a week. I always try to go Saturdays since the week nights are hard. But it's nice to walk with other people and get to know members of the training team so I joined them last night. They are a really nice group of (mostly!) women. Afterwards, a small group of us ate at Denny's and chatted for a while. Of course, since it is mostly women, there's always a little "scoop" on something going on with someone or a favorite story of "stuff" from last year. I'm just glad that none of it is about me :0) LOL. It's not bad, you just know how women can talk...but you have the real news, 150 days to go! Kim is doing amazing work on the fundraising ideas up in Sacramento while she nurses a sore ankle. Our Fuddruckers fundraiser is less than a month away...stay tuned for the details!
