They all signed up for a Color Me Rad run, and me and mom were all about it! Because, 1) cool people, and 2) this Rad Run's money went towards the Ronald McDonald House. Holla' to the Ron McDon House! Happen to love the RMHC, if ya didn't know. Matt and I stayed in the SLC (Salt Lake City) RMHC (Ronald McDonald House Charities) during Eli's surgeries... I still dream of that house, thinking how wonderful it would be to go back... But not for a heart surgery--just to stay. The SLC RMHC is that great.
BACK TO THE RUN>>> Before it all went down, an actual real life movie star came up on stage and talked. You know the guy who plays Rudy? Samwise on TheLofR? Let's just say it, the Goonies?! Yup, Sean Astin was there to kick it off. Remember how I said that we couldn't go to the first bowling alley on that Wednesday because of a movie being shot? Wow, what the heck is going on in Bama?! Movies and movie stars.
BACK TO THE RUN, for realz >>> Me and mom stayed together and ran the whole thing. It was actually really hilly. (Cause B'ham is hilly, fyi.) A pretty good work out. Plus lots of color being splashed on the runners. Fun times!
PS, Mom and I drove the boys to Atlanta that day, for our flight to Boise. THAT will be the next post. Oh geez.

Looks like tons of fun.
My sister stayed in the Ronald McDonald house as well while her daughter was going through cancer for 2.5 years. They treated her so well and so that place has a soft spot in my heart as well.
Great idea.
