We really don't want to totally cram this down everyone's throats, but...aw forget it, we do want to cram it down your throats. And considering that the people that read my blog are most likely true friends and family [as compared to all the folks on Facebook], I want to take this [brief] opportunity to be the bragging wife of BJ rather than the supporter of the FZC cause. BJ and his friend, Mark Notto, have signed up to take part in this:
...as a fundraiser for our friend, Zac Smith, who was recently diagnosed with cancer. Yes, he has a job that provides good medical benefits...but we all know that insurance doesn't cover everything. So BJ and his fellow computer nerdy friends have created this website to spread the word.
Back to the bragging part. I'm SO proud of BJ. Not only for seeing the need and taking the initiative to do something about it and for really working hard to develop a plan and a way to "market" it. But especially for making the commitment to an event that will truly challenge him. Sacrificing time to train, physically taxing his body, being open to the possibility of a bruised ego, etc. all with the hope that it will encourage everyone that knows (or knows of) the Smiths to make a small financial sacrifice.
Zac, Mandy, Lizzy, Jake and Luke Smith

I know BJ will NOT like that I've said all these things about him because he doesn't want that type of recognition, but I don't get the opportunity to sing his praises very often since he generally sucks. KIDDING!
