Today was our annual Buddy Walk. If you are unfamiliar with Buddy Walks, they are sponsored events that take place all around the country that support and advocate for all those with Down syndrome. They are primary fundraisers and a lot of fun! This was our first year attending and we were pleased to see such a nice turnout. The mayor and other community leaders were there as well as children's entertainers. The Knights of Columbus were major sponsors this year and they provided horse rides for the kids. We were thrilled to finally meet up with Micah's family, some friends we have met since Erin and Micah's birth (Micah's mom, Jennie, and I went to college together. It had been a loooong time since we had seen each other!)
