Today was the March of Dimes walk. It was the perfect day for it. They were predicting rain for the morning, but at the last minute the forecast changed to sunny and beautiful. The race was a huge success. I'm not sure how many people were there, but we were part of quite a crowd. We took a 4 mile walk from The Flats through the Browns stadium, up to Tower City and back into the Time Warner Pavilion. We worked up quite a sweat, but it was worth it to walk through the crowds and see all the babies that have benefited from the money being raised and knowing we were helping so many more. Jon and I want to thank those who donated to Team Purdum. We surpassed our goal by $50.
Before--ready to walk:
After--ready for a shower: When we got home, Ben needed to take a minute to smell the flowers.
Just a couple cute pics I wanted to share:
P.S. Huge props to Prasti who kicked butt walking up a ridiculously huge hill at 9months pregnant!

That's awesome you guys!! I've done the walk in the past (back home in PA) and there was always such an amazing turnout. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to join you all in walking this time as we are trying to avoid the very thing you were walking for! We're praying this baby stays put until July and praying the research you helped support will benefit so many more babies in the future.
