Tomorrow's the walk for the March of Dimes... shirt is washed and clean, camera gear all set... we're ready to go!

There's still time to give - donate on my March of Dimes page:

Marching for Babies

I'm walking with the March of Dimes this Sunday, (which, did you know they're not the March of Dimes anymore, but actually March for Babies? I never did understand that Dimes part anyway.) This is the second year I've walked... last year I raised around $125, which I was thrilled about. This year, I've dropped the ball on letting people know early, but I'll gladly take any donations here:

(nice it didn't show... sorry about that)

The March for Babies is something close to our family. My nephew was born a micro-preemie. Here is an image (that I did not take) of my nephew Niko, holding onto his fathers finger. It was insane how little he was.

Niko's turning 6 this year! At the zoo this past weekend, I tried to take some photographs of him, just for this blog post. Of course, he never cooperates with me :P





Oh well, I tried.

I'll be taking pictures at the walk again, so watch for those. The girls might also come along with me. Should be a great day! Thanks for your support!

So I did in fact March for Babies on Sunday. I want to say there were 13 of us from my area at FedEx walking. It was a beautiful day... really sunny (ugh I hate photographing in full sun) and really hot! That lukewarm water along the route, though, was quite thirst-quenching. So here's some random photos from the ordeal... Rhonda, if you read this (not sure if you will) I have unwatermarked ones for you to use in our newsletter ;)

I haven't decided yet, but this one might be my 365 photo of the day




Twigg and Jason ran the last 4 miles, so here's Twigg asking us what took us so long to finish


Rhonda and Vanessa at the finish line


If I don't pick the other one for my 365, I'm picking this one... it epitomizes the boys I work with


and I actually allowed Twigg and Jason to use my camera a few times... as proof I was there as well :)

There's more photos I'll probably end up sharing some off from GameWorks afterwards, so you haven't seen the last of these guys I work with. And thank you everyone who supported me! I ended up raising $135, which I think is fantastic! I think I'll find out tonight at work how much our whole area made as a whole... and I think we did good. YAY for Babies!
