Breast Cancer is in 5 days. =)







Pictures taken by Stephanie...thank you for these...our training is in full motion! =) These girls are so amazing especially when it comes to training for the walk. These were taken a few weeks ago by my dear friend, Steph, who is also our Team Captain (of Gerri's Girls). They started early at the crack of dawn, no seriously early Saturday morning and after doing 9 miles walking the beautiful beach scenary against the Silver Strand, San Diego, I then met up with them around lunch time to
train and continue the walk back to the finish line. As we walked back, we managed
to stop mid section at this very quaint, tiny little snack shop. Not only did we hit the bathroom for a break =) but also managed to get those delicious 'push up' sorbet. That was so yummy and it suited perfectly with the hot weather that day. Arriving at mid section, we actually had walked 4 miles by then but you really don't realize walking so many miles when walking with a group of people. By the time we reached to the finish line, the girls had put about 18 miles that day and I approximately did 8 miles. I really enjoyed walking, talking and laughing with these girls and am so looking forward to this 3 day walk. It is finally here believe it or not. Exactly 5 more days, this Friday November 21st, my journey begins...I pray that this walk will help save someone and aid in spreading the breast cancer awareness. Wish me luck you guys and please please pray for me. I still have a few more things to pack with me as this 3 day brings camping experience as well. Have a great week and stay away from the fires. Bless those who have lost their homes/lovedones. You all are in my prayers. Lastly, thank you from the bottom of my heart to those who have donated and supported me. Although I am not quite there yet in reaching my goal, I am optimistic, that with your support and with the grace of our loving God, I will be able to raise the remaining $248. Again, thank you so much! God Bless and be safe. =)
