Team "Suck It Cancer!" Rules!

I wanted to post some pictures of our team for the American Cancer Society's Climb to Conquer Cancer, since I finally have a free moment (WOOHOO Spring Break!). The 11 of us kicked ass 5.6 miles up South Mountain (a bit easier for some than others! eek!) and raised over $2,100 in only 2 short weeks. What can I say -- our friends and family are amazing! It was a wonderful event to be a part of, and such an honor to walk for those we love who have fought and beat cancer, who are fighting the beast now, and who have succumbed to what our dear Joanie calls a "relentless bitch of a disease." It was a GREAT DAY!

Joan's ready to get the show on the road.
Kickass ladies!
Perspective is a beautiful thing!
The backs of these shirts turned out great!
Listening to Dream Theater to get amped up, of course!
Serious mode.
Sweet shot, babe...
The traditional Gabe wave, and Auntie Peggy being helpful with stroller duties... I was about to pay Isaiah to let me accompany him ;)
Pretty view - and sweet relief to be at the top. 
Made it! Balla status!
Joanie bought a flag for our dear Grandma Barbara -- and planted it at the top of the mountain in tribute. So cool!
Ah sweet relief... now get me on the damn bus!
