Run With Rex 5K Family Fun Run and Birthday Pary
We got to participate in a wonderful event this year- the Run with Rex 5K Family Fun Run and Birthday Party! This is an event that a dear friend, Melanie Dow, puts on to benefit St. Baldrick's Foundation.
She started this event after her friend's son, at only at 18 months old, was diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma Cancer. After more time in hospitals and the family going through challenges I can't imagine, I am so happy to report that he has been cancer free since last october! Although we don't know him well, celebrating his 2nd birthday is something we were honored to do! #Rexstrong!!

Unfortunately it was a wet morning and a little colder than I expected, but it made my first jog in about a year feel pretty nice!!
The boys LOVE their shirts!
And Ellie enjoyed the jog! (Barrett and I both had to push a stroller- one double Bob and one single- we are out numbered!!)
They had many fun kids' activities including pony rides, a bouncy house, a fire truck to sit in, face painting and more!
Then off to Vivo for family breakfast! Fun morning!
