We Walked...Now We Sleep



Okay, so we completed our 3K in blistering humidity!  But what a nice route!  You could not have picked a more sunny day!


The bands played for us!  There were sponsors cheering us on!  There were bouncy castles (yes, Mommy even went through the bounce-ath-a-lon with Alison).  All in All, the Telus Walk to Cure Diabetes was a great day for the Morleys!


Alison brought in about $900, which is far higher than her $100 goal!  She was very happy when the volunteers  at the prize desk were giving her high-fives!  What a great accomplishment for a 4 year-old!


Alison was really happy and is already talking about how we can raise even more money for next years race.  She asked if Riley will be old enough to actually walk instead of being pushed in the stroller (yes, Alison insisted in walking the majority of the route).


Now everyone is knackered and ready for beddy!




Here are some pics from our day:

The Last Push

Hey Everyone!  We're in the home stretch!  This Sunday is the Telus  Walk to Cure Diabetes.  Alison has done a great job fundraising, but we could still do better!  If you were planning on donating you can still go to JDRF  and make an online donation.

For those of you from work who will be at the Richmond Road office this Friday (June 8), Alison and I will be selling paper sneakers to raise more funds for the walk between 8:00 am and 1:00 pm.  We'll be selling the shoes, but we'll also take donations of change in any amount!!!!
