CIBC Run For The Cure

Every year at the beginning of October or the end of September CIBC holds its premier breast cancer awareness and fundraising event The Run For The Cure.  For the last seven of those years I have been a part of this event with my friends, walking along the thousands of other Winnipegers hoping to one day bring an end to this terrible disease.

It becomes more and more apparent each and every year that there really is no one out there who hasn't been affected by this disease or any other type of cancer.  This year the love and support was seen in full force as young children walked for their mothers, aunts or grandmothers.  Older people walked for their daughters and granddaughters.  And others just walked for everyone who has been affect and one day will be affected by breast cancer.

It is always so inspiring to see the love and support that shows up so early on Sunday morning year after year.  Hopefully one day we will see an end to this fundraiser because they don't need to research anymore and instead we come together to celebrate those who have been cured, and cured for good!

Welcome Jackson Young!

Earlier this week Jamie and I became an aunty and an uncle again.  Jackson Paul Young was born on October 1, 2013, 6lbs 4ozs.  He is perfect and beautiful and we are so happy for my amazing sister in-law Lindsay and brother in-law Jeff!  We can't wait to watch him grow up, grow into his own personality and be a part of all of it! xoxo
