All for a good cause...



This weekend was full of what I call "good causes." Things that I truly believe in, and am passionate about. Saturday morning it was off to Waterloo to participate in the March of Dimes walk. I am part of team Angel's in Heaven; there were ten of us, and despite the cold rainy weather in our neck of the woods, when we reached Waterloo it was dry and sunny! We even broke out in a sweat during the walk:) My friend Miranda and I even made the Sunday Waterloo Courier:) Here's the link: http://wcfcourier.com/image_78a98866-5246-5ca7-bb40-5dc8d624bdfe.html

After a quick stop to Target, it was back home... to great suprise; the bathroom was repainted!! Amazing how just some paint and a new countertop make things look so different! Nolan had to get his tools out this morning to be daddy's helper!

Later in the afternoon we headed back towards what I call "around home" (anywhere around the small Irish town of Lawler) to Fredricksburg for my cousin Kim's benefit. What an amazing turnout! It is so great to see people in the community come together to support each other! It was also great to see family for two weeks in a row! With us Carolan's that sure doesn't happen too often!

Today was a little slower of a day, which was much needed in this household! Eryn spent some time at a friends before her final Luther PALS event of the year:( Eryn has really looked forward to all of her Luther PALS events, and this one was no different. She has really grown in the past year and this program has definitely helped that! We can't wait for next year! The best part is that Eryn's pals, Alice and Chelsea, are only juniors this year so they can be paired up again next year! YEAH!!
