Today was our communities CROPWALK! The girls have been talking about it for weeks now and today was the day. Today was the wet, rainy, thundering, lightening, damp, humid day! But we still walked. WHY?? Well, we walk because they walk. We want to assist people in becoming aware of the global as well as local needs that our world has. So we were fortunate that Tom, a friend from church, brought an extra golf umbrella (extra extra big umbrella) for us to use. Regardless, I still looked like a drowned rat, but oh well, it's for a great cause! So anyway, we walked 5K. Pretty good I think for being a wet, rainy, thundering, lightening, damp, humid day! The girls didn't start petering out until about 1/4 - 1/2 mile home and then Bayat got a piggy back ride by Tom. Yes, the one who brought the extra big umbrella. So extra fun for her. Tom looked at if from the perspective of getting a weight training workout! I just wasn't willing to pick her up, I already had two kids rain jackets as well as my own soaked and heavy coat, oh yea, and an umbrella!! :-) So we raised some money for a good cause, walked in the rain and I think Bond's beard will safely remain on his face. (Yes, this year's challenge was if the congregation raised enough money he would shave his beard!) And no, he didn't confer with me first :-)
Have a good monday~ Peace,
