5K for Charlie cooper!! Here is the big man himself! He is so sweet and precious I was so touched by how many people came to support this little boy. Charlie holds a special place in all of our hearts and we love him dearly. We doubled the size of this race and think there was like 300 people there for him. We all wore matching gray shirts for Charlie. It was a lot of fun and I thank my Mom for this idea she had for all of us to run in the 5K. 
Jer and I right before the race. I could believe how many people where there with the gray shirts on it was awesome!
This is the mass that was there for Charlie! He sure has a lot of support.
Adam, Jer, Jess, and I lined up to run to bad Adam and Jeremy left us in the dust.
Everyone from our family was there supporting Angel, Rob, Britty, Charlie. MyKelle and Izzy held hands and ran the whole way! I'm so glad these two cute little girls are such good friends.
Even my cute Papa was there! Good for you Papa, we love you!
At the end of the race Shani gave me 25 raffle tickets to see if she would win anything because she had to go to work. It turns out that her tickets won like 7 or 8 prizes! I had a lot of fun and I couldn't believe I ran almost all 3 miles! Maybe next year I won't take my walk break and just run the whole way! Good job to everyone who participated and we thank you for coming out. I hope we can all return next year and show our support for many others who need our support. This was just my view from the race, if you want to know more about it go to Charlie's website at charliecooperjackjack.blogspot.com.

It was an amazing time. How often do you get to do a 5K with your 88 year old father? He is awesome and I'm so grateful for this experience with all my wonderful extended family. Gammy was with us, our biggest cheerleader of all.

That is so wonderful! It was the perfect day for a race:)
Boom, you are a rockstar for winning me prizes. I am glad you kept the jelly beans. I hate them.
