Yesterday, my daughters and I participated in the Walk to End Alzheimer's.  My two grand daughters came along - though they were lucky enough to either ride in the stroller or walk on Aunt Nikki's shoulders.  It rained for almost the whole walk but it was worth it.  My team made $500 and it looks like the entire walk made an estimated $67,000 with more coming in through the end of the month.  I'm very proud of my girls and how on such short notice did so well.
Here a a few pictures from the walk.
This first is of my daughter Nikki and grand daughter Sydney, who is turning two today.
This second is a group shot of daughter Stephanie, d-i-l Kayla (though she is more a daughter!), Sydney, Nikki, me, and if you look in the stroller, you'll see little Sloan's head popping out.
The third is of Kayla, Sydney, Nikki, and Sloan.
The walk was a real blessing to all of us, and even though it poured almost the whole time, nothing could stop the walkers!
Next year, I'll be more prepared...I hope to make a quilt and some cross stitch items to sell and raffle off.
Thanks for sharing and please, if you have time, visit
