Weekend in Helena

We went to Helena for the annual Susan G. Komen - Race for the Cure Against Breast Cancer.  It was a wonderful weekend, the weather was so nice out.  We had dinner at Toi's Thai, which is just awesome.  And we discovered a new Big Dipper Ice Cream store just opened, so we of course had to check that out-- twice!!  The race started at 10 Saturday morning.  It was amazing to see that many people gathered together to support this wonderful cause.  People as far as you could see. 

One racer did the 5k in pink high heels!  I don't know how she did it.  I wonder if she did the whole race in heels?  There were little cheerleaders posted along the way to cheer us on.  And there were even some bag pipers.  After finishing we went to Karmellos and had a great Mexican lunch and then did some shopping in the afternoon.  That night Carol prepared a wonderful barbecued meal.  So all in all, great food, great company, great cause, great weekend!

On the way back through Great Falls, we stopped to see Sarah and Jimmy who have just moved to Great Falls!  We are so excited to have them so close.  Happy unpacking, and welcome to this side of the divide!
