WEEK #12 (already!)

CUTLER UPDATE: Not a whole lot to report this week as the Fricke's home computer has been down. But rest assured, Cutler is continually improving, especially after his most recent hospital stay! He's still having some difficulty swallowing though, so your prayers for that specifically would be appreciated! Makes me realize how something so basic can be so easily taken for granted...
TRAINING UPDATE: After last week's longest run of the season, we got to taper back this week to 'just' 10 miles, or in my case, 9.3 MILES as part of the Germanfest Fun Run/15k in Muenster, TX. On the upside, the weather was great and the scenery was awesome. On the downside, it was a fairly hilly course but worse than the hills was the wind! I managed to finish in 1:32 and I'm happy with that - not my best but not bad either. We hung around afterward and enjoyed some beer & brats (okay, "German sausage" is what the menu said, and I might've had Bud Light instead of Spaten!) and we had a great afternoon. Well worth the drive, and definitely a fun challenge!
FUNDRAISING UPDATE: Another $25 this week bring us up to $4,656! We are only a few weeks away from my final fundraising deadline, so keep up the great work! I am grateful beyond words...
My husband and I also held our 1st of 2 fundraising garage sales and managed to earn a couple hundred bucks. Feel free to stop by our house for sale #2 this Saturday, May 1st :o) And thanks again to Melanie, Kim, Donna, Gretchen (& Avery!), Mom & Dad, and Debbie for donating items for the sale!
