Penguin and a 3day breast cancer walk
I could have sworn that I posted this photo already, but now I can’t find it.. so here I go again. It this is repeat info for you, pretend its brand new, it’s worth telling again. This is my day 1 at the breast cancer 3day in Seattle. We stopped to fill out a circle for what our goal was for the event…
we decided the goal had already been met — we made it here. Thank goodness for that, and little did we know how big of a thought that was.
The event raised some 8 million dollars — can you believe it??? and yes, thats me strapped to the pack.. and my pink ribbon penguin sister is on the other side… we tagged along the entire time!
I met a heap of fabulous people and heard some amazing stories… there is so much we experienced crammed into 3 days, I can’t begin to tell you all of it, so instead here’s a few of my favorites:
Pink fuzzy monkey on a backpack
glamorously wonderful fancy pink hat
pink flamingos - of course!
(don’t forget the pink party beads)
the peppy pink stopping fairy
ready to watch out for our stopping safety.
and I even met a team of penguins. No kidding! –
this is Marie - I have a 50/50 chance of getting that wrong, i kept calling her the wrong name the whole time… sorry if I did it again
- she is with team Happy Feet. And they even decorated their tent with fabulous penguin balloons.
I love being a penguin… there’s always a little happiness, ever where we are. Go figure!
The closing ceremonies were amazing. The entire 3 days everyone was so spread out, it was hard to imagine exactly how many people were involved, but this view was a great one for me. I’m glad I went along!
