The Buddy Walk

Last Saturday, we attended our first Down Syndrome Buddy Walk for my nephew, Mitchell. What an event! There was a carnival (with awesome prizes - Mitchell got a big Winnie the Pooh stuffed animal and Katie got a Ty Beanie Baby -- at the FISH POND!!!) and then, there was the Walk. Team Mitch Man was happy to be there to support our favorite guy.


Me and Mitch Man (ignore my stupid bent glasses -- it was bright and I needed something!)

Katie "helping" her cousin

Very patient boy waiting for his "U" face paint

Much happier with the whole get-up

Grandma Paula and the awesome Fish Pond prize

Mitchell and his B.F.F., Tommy

Katie and the Alta Hawk (boo!)

Baby brother Jack slept through the whole thing

Mitchell loved hearing everyone cheer "Mitch Man! Mitch Man!" as we entered the starting line
