Relay for Life!

This past weekend we had the honor of doing relay for life in Ida Grove. Chad's sister Kristi is officially cancer free! She was diagnosed with cervical cancer Jan 23rd of 2008 and has gone through chemo and radiation therapy to fight her battle with cancer. This is our second year of participating in relay for life for Team Kristi. We had great weather for the evening and a lot of fun with family and friends. It is a very special and emotional event that raises a lot of money for a great cause. Chad's Grandma Niemeier is also a survivor of Breast Cancer that we are very thankful for! Kendal got a Dora Tattoo on her arm and she thought she was pretty cool:) What a good looking family!! Cora loving Grandpa up!! Kendal was a trooper!! She walked more then I did, she walked almos the entire time we were there. She loved going around and around with everyone. Cheers to our survivors to all that you have been through. You are amazing for winning the battle against cancer. We are soo proud of you and soo lucky we have you in our lives!! We love you Aunt Kristi and Grandma Niemeier and Uncle Dale your in our thoughts and Prayers!!!
