We had the privilege of walking with our nephew Jack and all of his team in support of his fight against diabetes at the JDRF walk downtown a few weeks ago. It is such an amazing event to be a part of, and for us, just another great way to let them know how much we love and care about them all! Congratulations Jack to everything you have accomplished, to each day that you have to "deal with" your sugar checks, your site rotations, people questioning you on "how you are feeling? what you are eating?" etc.,.. We love you and pray for a cure!!!!
Kate, Papa Suhr and Ben showing off their tinker-tow creations (great windmill guys!) Nanny and Papa came over on Good Friday to spend a few days with us before our Easter Sunday celebration at Aunt Sharolyn's with the Suhr family. Church on Friday night was absolutely amazing, then on Saturday we spent the day playing, attending a neighborhood egghunt/brunch, baking pies, salads, and enjoying time together.
Gabe & Max, Ben, Caleb and Kate excited to show off the eggs that they were getting ready to hide for the kids at CFUM. This year our small group (aka "Life Group") from church was able to sponsor an egg hunt downtown. We filled 1000 eggs, helped hide them and enjoyed watching the kids go CRAZY!!! As always, with any mission project, you expect to be giving so much to others, but really in the end, we walk away with being the ones that receive the blessings....just seeing the expressions on the kids faces was wonderful! We missed the rest of our group that was not able to be with us, but so appreciated their help with the eggs.
Mr. Ben made these "Wacky glasses" one day at school, and surprised me with them. I was in the kitchen, peeked in at him to find him in his usual after school pose (playing his DS game) with these on, acting like nothing was different - too cute!!!
Just the kids at the JDRF walk
