"Team Kate"

This past weekend I met my family in Charlotte and we participated in a walk for kidney disease awareness and research fundraiser.  Anyone who knows me (or has read my blog for a while) should know, both sides of my family are affected by genetic, chronic kidney disease.  This was a great way to have a good time together and raise support for this cause that is dear to our hearts. 

FYI: "Kate" is the name of my mom's new kidney that my aunt donated.  Yeup, it has a name, it's awesome.

Aunt (donor), Mom (recipient), and Dad (donor)

Love

Fun with Mr. Kidney :)

Family! (minus big sis)

He's a donor HERO!

Thankful for my sweet friend, Stacey, that came too

Nothing like swapping organs to bring a family closer together ;)
