this past saturday we joined my sister and her kids for a 5k walk in downtown houston to raise awareness for CHD (congenital heart defects). for the few of you who don't know, my sister's baby Dahlia was born with a condition known as left ventricular non-compaction and recieved a heart transplant last year. she has had no rejection issues and is doing great! (Dahlia and her daddy were not able to join us for the walk because she was being monitored in the hospital for allergies to her new iron/high calorie supplements.) hopefully everyone will be able to join us next year!
this next photo makes me laugh because the street is so deserted. we pretty much came in last place because we had a late start and we stopped a few times for photos.
all of us at the end of the walk
all the cousins with their medals. go team Dahlia!
at the end of the walk, there was lots of fun activities for the kids. the whole event was very family oriented with lots of children participating. the older kids loved trying out the rock wall
we had a great time and are looking forward to doing it again next year!

Love all the pictures, especially the one with the empty street! Maybe next year we won't come in last place. Thanks for joining us to support Dahlia!
