walking...

Well we were very excited to learn that the March of Dimes is having a walk here in the San Antonio area on May 16... We do enjoy walking and but it seems this walk is particularly special... We got a call last week from Carolyn our Premiere Care tester stating that the Premiere Care group is organizing their own team of walkers and that we could join in on their team.. the exciting news is though that they are making up team shirts and they are going to put the babies picture on the t-shirt... It will be one they took at the Reunion party they have in October when we dressed the quads up as the Wizard of Oz!!! It isnt this picture, but thought i would put a picture up just to remind you... arent they CUTE!!!!.. im just so excited that they get their picture on the t-shirt... Bobby and i are very excited about it and cannot wait for the walk!!! MAY 16!!!!!



also we are doing the Race for the Cure walk.. that walk is on APRIL 4... we are not doing the competitive race just the fun walk since we are taking the quads on this walk as well... we are walking in honor of a cousin, but Bobby's grandma died of cancer...

I’m participating in the Susan G. Komen San Antonio Race for the Cure on April 4, 2009!Will you join me in the fight to end breast cancer?
