Their mom, Analee, was in a 3day, 60 mile breast cancer walk. Having two people in her immediate family struggling with cancer as well as a good friend of hers pass away due to breast cancer, this was a very special time for her to be in a walk for such a great cause. Overall, the walkers raised I think around 2 million dollars to go towards finding the cure for breast cancer. It was amazing to me to see all of these woman (there were a few men as well) struggle and fight to finish the walk. Analee was always at the top of the pack just going, going, going. I am so proud of her for being so determined, and being so incredibly positive through it all! I am so glad I was able to go and support her! Here are a few pictures from the weekend:

The family
This has terrible picture quality- but I love it.
I also was able to visit my grandparents! I hadn't seen them for about three years. I was able to spend the night with the Hill's one night and then spend a couple of hours with Grandma and Papa on Sunday. It was the perfect way to end my vacation! :)
I LOVE THEM!!!
Overall, my trip was terrific and I'm so glad I was able to take a couple days off of work and just relax and have fun!
