March of Dimes

Kind of a general idea of how many people were there, however, there are tons more that were behind us! It was a HUGE event and was so much fun! Little miss walked 3 out of the 4 miles! I carried her on my shoulders for the other mile. She did amazing.

While standing in the arena, Jen spotted the University of Oregon flag! Of course I had to look for the Oregon State flag, but they didn't have it. But, I did have to take a picture of the Oregon flag at least!!! GO OREGON!!!

The kiddos waiting to walk. They had fun too...shocking! Kenny wasn't so thrilled with wearing a purple shirt however, but he wore it the whole time!

Emily's t-shirt was an adult small!! She now wears it as pajamas, but she wore it ALL day. I tried to take it off of her when we got home, but she told me no and said, "Mommy, my purple shirt, no take off!" So, she wore it all day!

And what is a walk without an injury! Within the first quarter of a mile, Emily fell and scratched her knee. I had to take a picture of if so there was proof that she put all of her might into this walk!

The walk was so much fun. Every 1/10 mile, they had a sign that said, "Week 1" for the first 1/10 mile. For the next 1/10, the sign said, "Week 2." By then I figured out what they were doing! The walk was 4 miles long and for every 1/10 of a mile, they posted the baby's development in the womb!! How awesome is that?! I remember while pregnant with both girls I would look up online what they were developing that week. Kind of wanted to know what my baby was looking like and able to do! It was neat to read the signs as we were walking. Brought back many memories. I am already looking forward to doing the walk next year!
