Light the Night Kickoff

We got to attend the Light the Night kickoff today at the FW zoo. It was hot! We got to see all the animals (who were hot) and then we went to the pavillion for lunch. Hamburgers and hot dogs were provided and then the kids got to see an animal show while Rudy and I got more information on The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and Light the Night. The highlight, for me, was a dad sharing his story about his son battling leukemia. His son is 3! It was very heart-wrenching to listen to, but also gave me a peace. His son is a year into treatment and doing very well. We are all just hoping for research to develop even newer and better ways to treat and cure this disease. The boys were wiped out and fell asleep in the car. We had a lot of fun!
