2nd Annual Team Snail Denver Chapter Light the Night

Go Team Snail! The 2nd Annual Team Snail Denver Chapter Light the Night Walk was a huge success! The weather has been amazing in Denver for how late in the season it is and tonight was no exception. The turnout was wonderful and it was breathtaking to see all of the red balloons go around the lake at night. Even more wonderful, all of the white balloons for all of the survivors! Thank you to everyone who donated, came to walk and all who always send their thoughts and prayers our Snails way, everything helps!

The boys being snails of course!Mama Snail putting the finishing touches on our banner.
We love our Snail, our sister, aunt, daughter, niece and friend.

Light the Night in Denver

It is time for the 2nd Annual Team Snail Denver Light the Night Walk. We will be walking around Washington Park on Thursday night the 30th. Activities start at 5pm and the walk starts at 7pm. A not quite 2 year old did it last year so it is not too difficult for anyone!
Team Snail will be meeting at 5:30pm for a dinner picnic on the South West Corner of Franklin and Mississippi. Bring dinner for your family and I will bring dessert!

1 year ago today

Just a reminder today that the quality of your life is what is most important. The experiences, memories and people you surround yourself with can never be replaced. Life can change in a blink of an eye literally. It was exactly one year ago today I received a phone call from our little Snail that would change our lives forever. Today might not seem like something to celebrate but today I will celebrate my miracle baby sister who time after time has beat the odds and told the angels they will have to wait, she is not near done yet!

Ironically Stand Up to Cancer is having their annual telethon tonight 8 pm EST or 7 pm CT on multiple channels. Visit http://su2c.standup2cancer.org/ to learn more.
