MOD Walk for Babies_Centennial Park

Yesterday was the big day. We arrived at Centennial Park and found the SHARE Atlanta tent. I was finally able to put faces to names I have been talking to on the Forum site.
We, Andy, Aeriell, Abbie, and I, proudly wore our family shirts and eagerly waited. Andy and I both felt a rush of emotions when we saw our babies names on the memory wall. Andy later told me he again was rushed by emotions when we crossed the "finish" line.

Being among thousands of people was breathtaking...all walking for different reason but walk for babies!

I am so proud of both of the girls for walking the 3.9 miles.

Afterward we went to the water spout area then took a much needed rest back at the hotel. We walked to Underground Atlanta that evening and ate at Johnny Rockets. Today we went to the Coca Cola Museum!!

Thank you for all your help and support!

Project Update

Well the end of spring break has nearly come to an end and so has our floor project. We can't believe the difference these new floors make not only with allergies but brightness too. We love it!
Houdini, however, hates it! He can not get enough traction to pounce B.J. Both Houdini and BJ are out of sorts with the new floor. Abbie on the other hand loves the floor. She loves to slide up and down the hallway.

Spring Break Project

Our spring break project is to replace the carpet in the playroom, living room, and hallway.
Yes, I am sure we are breaking several child labor laws!!

Who said cats are the only ones who like boxes?

Dad's Helper!
Abbie was so excited that SHE was the only one small enough for this job!

The "Crew"
No, they aren't bandits...dust protection.

FACE?
Our neighbor's son came to visit over break! Lucky us! When your dad's been in the military for 20+ years, one gets creative in making a makeshift dust mask. He does have a face...I think.


My turn!

Abbie added a little dancing butt action only she could create!



Dynamic Duo

These two kids put in a full days work! Without them Andy would not have gotten as far as he did today!
Thank you you two!
