The day is nearly here!

Wow! We've been training and fundraising for three and one half months and the date is almost here! We're headed out to Arizona on Thursday morning, the Grand Canyon on Friday afternoon and hiking on Saturday morning. We're going down the Hermit Trail. Of course, I've been doing my research and found some pictures from The Walking Connection from the trail...



We couldn't have made it this far without the support of everyone who has donated money. As of today we have raised over $9500 for LLS! Thank you everyone who donated!



Since January we've hiked in 2 states, climbed Stone Mountain a total of 5 times, hiked Kennesaw Mountain 9 times (10 for Steph!), been to places in Georgia that we've never seen before and walked miles and miles and MILES in our neighborhood and became stronger people through it all! Back in January the hike up Kennesaw was kicking our butts. now we hike over Kennesaw to Burnt Hickory and back... and then up Kennesaw again for good measure. All while carrying a pack weighing 17 pounds that we didn't have for our first few hikes. We feel extremely well prepared for our trip into the canyon. Thanks to Sandy and the mentors for their support to help us grow stronger and increase our endurance every week.



Our pictures will be coming...soon!
