Candlelighters 5K Race

On Saturday September 12, we attended the Candlelighters annual fundraiser run/walk. This year we had many of our friends and neighbors join us to walk or run for the event. We also had our friends Olivia and her brother Aaron with us. Olivia who was diagnosed with Leukemia two weeks after Leila is also doing very well. We had decided to join a team that was honoring the memory of a boy who had passed away this last year from Leukemia. This team alone helped to raise over $20,000 for Candlelighters. After the race was over, there was plenty of food and drinks for everyone. There was also face painting for the kids, inflatable jumpers, balloon artists and games. Leila had a great time with the kids.
