We Came, We Saw, We QUASHed

Dan and I had a great weekend. Today, we went to a Catholic marriage preparation retreat...some parts were awesome, some were mediocre. Overall, we came away with some new knowledge and more insight into what we need to work on for a successful future together.

Yesterday was a ton of fun. For the second year, we ran all over downtown Indy to raise money for the Alzheimer's Association during the Quest to Unravel Alzheimer's Scavenger Hunt (QUASH). For 2.5 hours, we followed clues across downtown and went everywhere from the Scottish Rite Cathedral to the Slippery Noodle to the Eiteljorg Museum. I think we logged about 4.5 miles. We didn't come anywhere close to winning-- and we didn't expect to because we knew from experience that some of the other teams are serious competitors. For us, it gave us a chance to raise money and awareness for a disease that has affected both of our families and spend a day cooperating and having fun together. If you would like to help, it's not too late -- you can still contribute to our Alzheimer's fundraising efforts by visiting my personal QUASH page or Dan's.
