It's TIME!!!

Well here we are only hours away from me getting up and getting on an airplane bound for San Diego. I think I have everything I need, well I hope I do because NOTHING else is fitting into this bag. :) I just hope I am not over the airport weight limit, because I am about 7 lbs over the Komen limit...oh well! If I can lift it the crew can lift it!

The time has finally come. 24 weeks of training and now we are here...I am very excited and can't wait to get there and see what this journey is all about. I know I am going to have a wonderful experience and I can't wait to see all the walkers, survivors, and support group. I know I couldn't have done this without my support. My aunt Cindy is the best! She has been with me every step of the way and here this last spring she was with me when I said I wanted to do this walk. We have trained for 24 weeks, raised over $2300 (each of us) and gone through many pairs of shoes. Now we are ready and guess what the weekend calls for...RAIN! UGH!!! I am not excited about this part of it but it will make it memorable that is for sure.

The girls are not excited about me going and could really careless about me bringing something home for them but you and I both know that if I don't they will be very upset. I did leave a stack of messages (1 for each day) to them and Tim. I know they will be just fine and I can't wait to hear all about the fun they have while I am gone. Rumor has it Tim is going to pitch a tent in the living room and they are going to have a campout. Can't wait to see pic's of this.

Okay well bags are packed, feet are conditioned with LOTS of calluses and my body is ready to go. I will post pic's and stories as I get back.

Thank you everyone for your support!
Love always,
Katie
