Today was the annual HopeWalk for HopeKids! Since Bill was still in Illinois helping Gramma to recover from her knee replacement, it was just me and the boys at the walk this year. Brendan’s team raised $500! We appreciate HopeKids so much and we are grateful to our family and friends that helped support this organization!

The pre-walk festivities were fun. Brendan met Deadpool!

Trevor preferred to stay incognito

Brendan decorated and raced a little wooden car

Trevor was not thrilled with the crowds

Lots of characters and mascots were there to cheer everyone on

Getting everyone pepped up for the walk to begin

Almost the moment they blew the horn to start the walk, the skies opened up and it POURED down rain. Some families stayed and walked the whole 5k. We bailed early because the boys were getting soaked!
