Hearts for Hearts - 2009

A group of us at work decided to put a team together and walk in the American Heart Association walk. Kris came up with our name Heart for Hears 2009 and we had shirts made at the Cotton Gallery (highly recoomend them as they're great to work with, good quality product, cheap, and very supportive of community events).

The day of the walk looked like rain so only about half of us showed up. Shaun slept in his car seat most of the walk well protected by the umbrella on his car seat and on the stroller from the rain. Katelyn wouldn't leave her umbrella up so she was wet like mommy, Kris, and Jan. I had an umbrella, but not enough hands to carry it. Katelyn wanted to walk, but was getting ran over, so Aunt Jan was carrying her. Then we tried her on her "leash", but she wanted to hold the other end. Mommy finally came through by enticing her into the stroller with food.

We enjoyed the walk, but could have done without the rain.

Our attempt at a team picture after walking in the rain. Katelyn's eating her apple that Kris "opened" for her (she took the first bite).

Katelyn in the bounce house, though she didn't last long as the big boys knocked her down.

The drowned rat look while coloring in the coloring book from the Coralville Police. I had to strip her completely down and put warm dry clothes and blanket on her to stop the shivering.

Giving Shaun fluffy to chew on.

The brief time she was okay with Aunt Jan holding the leash.
