Relay for Life TEAM ITA - Inspired To Act!

We are preparing for our greatest challenge yet - to create a team for the Relay for Life 24 hour walk event in Menefee, CA on May 1, 2010! Whew! Of course, I had no idea the what the exact expectations were when I signed up but just went for it. (Thanks Robin Shannon for telling me to go for it and in advance for the help!!)

JOIN US! Goodness knows I will need all the team members I can get to help me figure out just how to make this work! To join the team or just check out how we are doing so far you can go to our team page.

I will post information here on any fundraising we do which includes the Kids Got Talent! show the girls are hosting. They have formed their own group - Kids Inspired to Action to raise funds on their own.

Thanks in advance for any of you who are gutsy enough to join us or help!

Check out the photos from our JDRF Walk!

Go to our TeamOf4 Blog to look at some pics or you can also go to Lisa's FaceBook album! ENJOY!

Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation 5K!

We are joining with Team B.R.I.T.T. for a walk in support of the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) on March 13, 2010. The girls are especially excited to do this walk as it is a friend of theirs who has inspired them to know more about this disease and want to be proactive in aiding this cause. We are proud of them for wanting to participate and are hoping many of our friends will support them in their efforts. We will be posting Brittany's story and hopefully her video so you can meet her - she is a truly amazing and talented dancer and a great example to our children of the power of a positive environment.

You are welcome to use the button to the right or go to our JDRF Walk page if you would like to get a tax deductable receipt (or to see how close we are to reaching our goal!)

You can donate to this in any amount - we are hoping to reach a minimum goal of $100 for our family to contribute but the girls are asking for any amounts $5 - up. Thanks for being part of our children's first true efforts on a cause!

Jeff, Lisa, Pierce, & Keenan
