JDRF Walk

Today we walked for JDRF Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation in honor of our favorite niece Brittany. She was diagnosed four years ago and is such a brave girl. I don't think at her age I could have dealt with the trails she faces daily due to diabetes. I hope that someday they will find a cure for Brittany. Hailey was so excited for the walk. She kept telling her friends and neighbors, "Brittany has diabetes and we are walking for her!" After the walk when we got home she made sure to tell her friends, "The walk was AWESOME!" It was a lot of fun to walk and support Brittany. Along the walking route they had pictures of the kids who have diabetes and it was fun to spot Brittany's. After the walk we enjoyed a free lunch and some fun activities. Theres nothing like eating a hot dog at 10:30 am! Thanks to Brittany and her family for letting us join there team. We can't wait till next year! Thank you also to those who donated to support us in our walk. We were overwhelmed with your generosity!

Here are a few pictures!
