Well, the boys and I made it to Overland Park for the annual Alzheimer's Walk! Not only did I reach my goal of $200 in donations, we also had a GREAT time! This year they had an AWESOME "Kids Korner" where the kids got their own shirts, rub on tattoos, balloons, spider rings, fake vampire teeth and stickers! It was great and it totally occupied our time til the walk started.
Thankfully, Bob's cousin, Krissy Lohmeyer, does this walk every year and she met up with me so I was able to use the restroom (wasn't sure how to manage two toddlers, a double stroller, and a port-a-pot...lol!)...so Krissy watched the boys for me so I could do that! Phew!
We ended up only doing the one mile walk for a couple of reasons...1)Krissy's group was doing the 1 mile so I could walk with them and have someone to chat with. 2)there were SOOOOOO many participants (which is AWESOME) that the pace at which we were walking I could have crawled faster! The boys kept saying: "Go faster mom!" I usually am bookin' it when we go on walks around town...so they were getting restless. So needless to say, we just did the one mile and it was plenty for all of us!
We didn't stick around for the free lunch as the line to get said free lunch was longer than the race!! And the boys would never have made it. Just as well, we went to Sam's club to meet up with my parents anyway and from there had lunch and then up to my brother's house for a day of cousin fun! McKendra taught Camden how to make a "silly face"...LOL! 
It was a beautiful day!
Thanks again to all those who donated to the cause! You are AMAZING!!
