March for Babies

This past weekend Jared was on the road with Heelan Girls Soccer in Adel, IA and they did great they played three ranked teams and won all three! They have a young team and had only played one game that was called early because they were winning by 10 so hadn't had many games under their belts and also because of weather had barely practice outside.  Then Saturday we had the March for Babies I have done every year since the boys were born.  It is a fundraiser for the MArch for Diems which is an organization for babies born prematurely!  We walk and raise money in hopes that no babies will be born early and all babies will get to leave the hospital with there mom and dad's when it is time to go home.   I had a great turn out and made great money for the organization!  My goal was 50 walkers fro the 50 days the boys spent int he NICU as we fell short from that we had a GREAT group and had a lot of fun.  The weather was absolutely AWESOME!!!





GREAT Turn out...Thank you all 32 including kids and two dogs!




Landon was a bit tired!

After the walk Maddie and Taylor wanted to do a lemonade stand for "Team Bodie Boys" and all the proceeds goes to the march for Babies!  It melts my heart how sweet those girls are and they thought on that.  The letter below the wrote for their customers to read...so sweet!  They made $34 (AWESOME) to donate to a great organization!







We are truly blessed to have all of you in our lives and for all that support Team Bodie Boys if it was by walking, donating, or just to be there for me and my family!  Thank you all! LOVE YOU!!
