Stolen Picture...

When your camera is broke you resort to stealing others' pictures! (Thank you Jennie from A Little Something Extra) This was taken by Micah's mom at our local Buddy Walk a few weeks ago. We had a great time meeting up with Jennie, Mark and their two adorable kids. It's so rare that our whole family is all in the same picture that I thought I'd put it on our blog too.

Buddy Walk!!!

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!)
