Rexanna's Foundation Huddle up for the Cure

This past Saturday we attended the 2nd annual Huddle up for the Cure. This foundation was established after Rexanna Hawkins lost her fight with lung cancer on June 21, 2006. Rexanna was not a smoker and fought her battle head on as well as made such an impact on the doctors and staff at MD Anderson. This mission of the foundation is to financially support efforts dedicated to eliminating lung cancer, improving public awareness, and they are committed to supporting lung cancer research at the University of Texas MD Anderson with the specific direction as designated by the Board of Directors. We had such a great turn out of the event and it is only going to get bigger and better with the years to come. Please check out the web site. http://rexannasfoundation.org/ And if you have any questions or would like to help in any way please let me know! Here are a few pictures from the event. The first one is Bryan and I at the event and the second one is one of my best friends from high school and her husband, Bryan and Michelle. They just recently got married and Michelle and I have not seen each other in probably 5 years!
