sorry it's taken so long guys, things have been way crazy around here! it was a gorgeous day for the walk, loads of fun, they had the blow-ups for the kids like last year(on bounce house, plus a little kids(toddlers, really)obstacle course and a big obstacle course for the older little kids.). very good chips, LOL! and one of the guys that was walking with us said he'd see if he could get his company to under write shirts for next year, which rocks because only four of us out ofa total of 11 had 'Anna's Hope' shirts this year:grumpy:. Lowes and Home Depot had a tent and they where doing wood crafts with thekids. Emily and her friends Mason really liked that:biggrin2:! it was great, i love the walks, i think i might like them even more than my birthday! and every body together by walk day had raised.....................drum roll please..... .............................$400,000:woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and my team has raised so far(i've still got one friend thats been super busy and is going for the April 28 dead line.such a good friend:cry4:!!)..................drum roll one more time............ ................$1,500(and 50 cents:tongue)!!!!!:woohoo

that's the most we've ever raised:woohoo:woohoo!!!!

if any body forgot about the walk and would still like to donate, the dead line is April, 28.

Thanks to every bun(er, body:headsmack!)who gave money and/or prayed:hug1, every thing helps!!!

and here's a pic of me and Emma, she's three and got diabetes one year ago this weekend. she's such a sweet heart!

she was low, so she wasn't as bouncey as normal, but still just as sweet!

if any body wants to check out Emma's web site it's http://www.emmasdream.com.

thanks again every body!
