Purple War Montage

Some of my dearest neighbors put a montage of pictures from the Purple War Fun Run and parade entry. How did they know that Rascal Flatts is one of my all-time favorite bands?

This morning was the Cedar Hills parade, so Dad, Travis, Braden, and I got to ride in a white, horse-drawn carriage that Shawn Warenski hired for us as part of the Purple War campaign and bake and craft sale.

It was fun.

We threw out two full bags of hard candy and small packages of Skittles, Nerds, Twizzlers, and other treats--over 13 pounds of candy, and it lasted only the first half of the parade. By the second half, we didn't have any more candy to throw out to the kids. Sad!

I'm exhausted from this entire week and sunburnt, and now get to teach the Relief Society lesson on temples tomorrow.

Time for a nap!

Cedar Hills Fun Run and Second Daily Herald Article

Here's the second article in the Daily Herald about Thursday night's Fun Run:

Thursday evening was the Cedar Hills Fun Run, and all proceeds were for me. Most people wore purple too.

I think that Ronnie Proffit said they raised about $1200 that night. Wow! And it's all being matched by an anonymous corporation.
