Relay for Life

Since Madison is in student council at her elementary school, she was invited to be part of their Relay for Life team. Despite it being for a serious cause, there was plenty of goofing off and fun to be had by all that attended. We went down to walk a few laps with Madison. It was fun to check out all the booths and see all the stuff they had available.Mr. Eisman even took some time to show Rob some pointers to improve his musical skills.Relay for life is a 24-hour event, so of course Madison wanted to stay over night. I didn't really like the idea, but Rob decided to support Madison by staying with her. They stayed up most of the night and took turns with other team members walking the course throughout the night, partly just to keep warm (it was very cold that night). It was a good experience, and we were happy to support such an important cause, especially since Rob and I have both had experiences with cancer.
