Autism walk/pictures

Today we walked in the Autism walk. We went with my mom, and our friends the Bramble's. It was perfect weather for the walk, not too cold or hot. The boys had a good time walking around, playing games, and eating free ice cream. Jordan was really excited when he got his picture taken with " Star Wars" characters. He even got a Star Wars tattoo and trading card. The boys also met a couple other fun characters.
The walk was for a fantastic cause that we feel strongly about, and there was an excellent turnout. The only minor issue was the walk was at Cottowood High School, and it just wasn't big enough for all the people. It is a good problem to have such a high turnout and raise awarness of Autism, it just made it hard to walk at a decent pace. In fact, by the time we walked the first lap we were told that there were a lot of people that still hadn't started their first lap and that we would have to wait for lap two. So, we decided that the one lap would be just fine. Great day, great cause, WE LOVE YOU TYLER!!!!

It's great you're teaching your boys about service all the time. Sarah got sick so we couldn't make it, but it looks like you had a great time.
