Blog updates have fallen behind....so here's an attempt to get caught up on what we've been doing the past month or so...

March Of Dimes - March For Babies
We love babies...so we were excited to support the March of Dimes which works to give all babies a chance to grow and thrive. I was very happy that my company was a huge supporter of the Fort Worth event this year. They requested 'ambassador families' to share their stories of how they were impacted by the March of Dimes, so I was thrilled to be able to share the story of Brianne and her 9 days in the NICU and to have Brianne and Bryce's smiling faces shared on the company's internal website! I was so grateful for all of the people that supported our fundraising efforts and for those that came out to walk with us! The day of the walk was a little chilly, but the sun was shining and we had a great time!

We finally made it to the finish line!! |

Froggy Games!
One of the many perks of Brianne being a Kinderfrog, is a chance to attend the Froggy Games. This is a great event where amazing volunteers fill up a gymnasium with all sorts of toys and games to entertain little kids - hula hoops, scooters, ring toss, soccer nets, streamers, parachute toy...and a fun band plays great music. It's definitely nice that there are so many volunteers willing and ready to play with the kids that the parents get a chance to sit back and relax (that is, if their kids aren't clinging to their leg and afraid to leave their side which might have been the case with Bryce...). Brianne loved running around the gym from game to game and meeting new friends! Brianne was one of the bands biggest fan - and I definitely think she won their hearts when she was blowing them all kisses to say goodbye. Very thankful we were able to enjoy this event!

Chords for Kids - Love that they volunteer their time to spread music and joy with our kids! They even come to Kinderfrogs and play at her school sometime!
Best Buddies - The TCU Chapter of Best Buddies organized the Froggy Games this year - very thankful for all that they did to make this a great time for the kids - and the parents! Thank you!
