It is that time again for The Buddy Walk! It is a little over a month away and they have opened up the pre-registration. The Buddy Walk is awesome, it is a great experience and the proceeds go to a great cause, they go to all the cute little people like Bode. The Buddy Walk raises money so Bode and other kids with Down Syndrome can particpate in many activites that help them and their families. It also teaches you a little bit about Down Syndrome Awareness.We have particpated twice now, the first year Bode had about 70 buddies come and the year after he had 90 something, it was AWESOME, we Bode had the most buddies. We can do it again! We have had so much support with the Buddy Walk and we are hoping we can count on all his "buddies" again.
We will be back with a new color of bandana to help everyone see all of Bode's Buddies. With registering you get a T-shirt, lunch (this year it is sponsered by Red Robin, yummy hamburgers) and a kids carnival. You also get the experience of being surrounded by all these special spirits, that alone is worth it!

Like I said before, we always have a great experience at these Buddy Walks and we have always appreciated so much those that come and support our little guy, it means a lot to us!
Here are 2 different videos of the Buddy Walks that we have particpated in. The first one is 2007 and the 2nd is 2006 (Thanks TJ for making this one, it was the perfect song). Everytime I watch these I get tears in my eyes because I am so overwhelmed with all the support we have. We love you! Enjoy!
