Last Saturday we participated in Light the Night, a walk to support leukemia and lymphoma. Jeff's company, Seattle Genetics, is working on a drug, SGN-35 to treat Hodgkin's lymphoma, so they support this fundraiser. The walk was around Green Lake (2.8 miles) and everyone held a lighted balloon - red for supporters, white for survivors and gold in memory of someone. It was pretty cool to watch all the lighted balloons circling the lake. What wasn't cool was the rat that scurried right in front of us on the walkway at dusk - ewww! And it wasn't cool to hear Harrison's incessant complaining the entire time! You would have though someone stuck a hot poker in his eye the way he was carrying on. Geesh. 2.8 miles is nothing. Of course, my injured foot didn't agree and I was hobbling by the time it was over. But still. Hayley brought her friends Hannah and Micheal along, so those are the kids in the photos you probably don't recognize. It was a beautiful night!
