I'll be walking~ but it's definitely for love!!

This is a picture of 3 of my favorite people in the world! Colin (Mike's brother), Ranie (one of my best friends) and McKay (the handsome one in the middle!). Ranie has been there for me through - well, through everything! And now I want to help her by letting you know about a fundraiser they are holding. Below is a little of their story, but please visit http://www.irunforlove.com/ and see the whole story and all the information. Please help in any way you can! We know how beautiful adoption is, and now they do, too!!

In February 2010, Colin and Ranie, after nearly a decade of trying to start their family, completed an in-vitro procedure. They had three embryos implanted but at 4 weeks found out all three were unsuccessful. Their sorrows were very high at that point. A few weeks passed when a friend notified them of a little boy that was born on March 26th and was not placed in a family yet. After a week of miracles and paperwork they were able to adopt and bring home McKay on April 7th. They have been in "heaven" ever since. McKay has brought them so much joy and love into their home.

Colin and Ranie have recently been notified that McKay's birth parents are expecting a little boy again on March 29th. They asked the agency to contact Colin and Ranie and ask if they would be willing to adopt McKay's little brother. Colin and Ranie accepted without hesitation. However, with a costly in-vitro cycle, and adoption of McKay within two months time and now another adoption within that same year, it has put a strain on their funds. They are in need of financial help to get McKay's little brother adopted into their family.

They are hosting a "RUN FOR LOVE" fundraiser on February 12, 2011 that will include a 5k run/walk, 1/2 mile fun run for kids, raffle and silent auction. Donations are also welcome!
