Autism Walk

This is Megan with Ben. Today we all gathered with her to raise money and walk for autism. Her nephew has autism and learning more about and raising money for autism research is very important to her and should be for all of us.

It was a privilege to do this with the majority of the Bjorndal family. Usually on Sundays all of us get together to catch up and just enjoy each other, so today we thought we would join our beloved Megan and walk for autism. It was a great way to do more then just catch up and enjoy each other, we made a difference (some of us more than others). Over $207,203 was raised today in the very first walk in our area. We only decided to walk a few weeks ago so I didn't really fundraise but we are thinking of doing it next year, so get ready to open your hearts and wallets to make a difference in many familys and childrens lives.

Here are a few shots of the rest of the family enjoying the day, only dad and Jacob were unable to make it out. It was a great day in so many ways.

Here is Jana with Adrian, just before Logan fell and we lost them for a little while. That is until they ran to catch up with us.

Here is Bella getting a good laugh with Jaclyn (Bella is in the stroller).

All the kids were interchangeble and here is Ben with David in Katherine and Chris' stroller.

Here we are getting ready on this cold day for a good walk.

My little family. We got the carrier yesterday and Ben loved it, he would have got tired of the stroller, but did great and was good the whole time in the carrier.

Here is Jaclyn all bundled up for the cold. All the kids were in great spirits considering how cold it was for them.

Here we all are for a our prewalk warm up. We were really just standing around wating to get going.

Megan and Mike enjoying a good laugh while walking in a very large crowd that wasn't moving too fast.

It was a good day and we all had a great time and I am looking forward to doing it again next year.
