but Race for the Cure was a special day for me and Ellie!
on April 17th, just shy of eleanor jo's 1 month birthday, we got up bright and early and reunited with a few of the original members of Team Fancypants for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure 5k in downtown Savannah.
it was a beautiful sunshiney morning, we had a fabulous group, and sharing it with ellie (named after her late Great Grandma Jo Dunn who battled breast cancer during her lifetime) was pretty darn poignant. only a few happy, wistful tears were shed at the very start-- i know Grandma Jo was watching and loved every minute of Ellie Jo participating for the cause!
(post-race, none too happy-- we'll say she was a bit worn out. but check out that outfit. she was decked out and ready to go, matching sweatband and all!)
