Buddy Walk - October 2009

Our first Buddy Walk. A buddy walk is to raise awareness about Down Syndrome and to help those with the many medical needs of people with Ds. We wanted to try it out this year and will be making this an annual event for our family. We LOVE LOVE LOVE the Jeff an Val and their family for coming and supporting our little Annika. We walked in the rain and loved every minute.

Friends we have met through various programs. Anna and her family, Natasha and her family, Hailey and her family, and Stockton and his mom. (Ben on the side)

Rachel and Stockton

Joe, Anni, Valerie, and Zach

October 2009 - Picture Purge

The last months have been very busy with many activities. Here is our October summary.

The older kids we think got the H1N1. They camped out on the couch for a while. Annika was not sick, she just wanted to do what the big kids were doing. I couldn't let her up there with the kids so I got G's little couch and she thought it was great. She loved it.

Gavin's first field trip to a pumpkin patch.

Gavin was feeling a little nostalgic when he saw his old dalmatian costume. He just had to put it on. When he was 3 and actually fit in this costume, I couldn't get him out of it. He had to wear it everywhere.
