Race for the Cure

This weekend Ella and I went to Charlotte with Mom and we went to Erin & Josh's house for the weekend. On Saturday, we walked the "Race for the Cure" which is the Susan Koeman breast cancer walk. Last year the four of us walked the national race in Washington DC in June, and Josh invited us to do it again this year in Charlotte.

Here are some pre-walk pictures:

Josh pushed Ella and she was absolutely perfect - she had a fun time getting pushed and enjoyed looking around at everyone and all the walkers. She took a short nap at one point but other than that stayed up the whole time and just took everything in.

Here she is with her happy feet going

Piece of cake!

We had beautiful weather and it was a great day for the walk. After, Erin showed us her office, we wreaked some havoc there (all over a bag of popcorn), and headed to the Catalyst parking lot for a group photo in the 'construction cam'!

so pretty

Ella was the most precious walker of all!

What a wonderful weekend...though I will never look at microwave popcorn the same again.

If I may make a suggestion...perhaps you may want to shave off 30 seconds or so from your cook time :) ??
