Just hanging'

It's been nice just hanging around the house this weekend.

We celebrated Collin's 14th birthday (help!) Dave of course, was a huge help opening presents :)

Dad, Collin, Kaitlyn, Dave and I attended Southeastern Guide Dogs Walk-A-Thon kick-off party. The theme was Hawaiian and Southeastern even hired someone who sang and played a steel drum...

(Southeastern Guide Dog's sign stating when the up coming walk-a-thon is... March 3rd!)

(The many people, and dogs!, who showed up... the party was held under the gazebo)

 The walk-a-thon kick-off party was also a great time to catch up with out of state friends... many Area Coodinators were in town for the annual AC meeting. As well as many familiar faces, we also saw Ellen Cox... she raised Eve's brother and is now raising Austin, Eve's nephew! Austin is a white lab, isn't he adorable?

 Dave went to his second soccer game. He loved watching the kids... and eating grass.

Dave will be turning 10 months in a little less then a week! He seems to have grown up so fast.
