March of Dimes WalkAmerica
On Sunday many of our family members and friends joined us in the March of Dimes WalkAmerica in Jackson, MI. We all wore bright yellow shirts that read "Miracles Happen" "team miracle girl". Tim and I decided to join in this walk to honor Carys, our miracle girl! Our team raised around $1700.00 coming in 2nd place for the family team division. I am so proud of our team. The walk was 7 miles. Carys spent 6 of the miles in her dad's arms even though she could have ridden in her stroller or wagon. The weather on Sunday was perfect...sunny, in the 70's and a nice breeze. Tim and I hope to make this an annual event and hope that our team miracle girls gets larger and larger each year. Thank you to everyone that donated to our team and a special thanks to everyone that walked: Grandma Barb, Grandpa Greg, Grandpa and Grandma Davis, Uncle Geri, Aunt Jennifer, Cousins Kennedy, Holden and Kaidyn, Aunt Tami, Cousins Teige, Rourke and Macyn, Aunt Emily, Cousins Jarren and Reese, Jeannine, Tim and Melissa!! You were all troopers during the 7 mile trek!! I hope you all are able to join us next year!!!! Also, thanks Aunt Jen for sharing Carys' story with The Jackson Citizen Patriot when they had asked you.
