Buddy Walk 2008

October 1, 2008 By Mindy

1 Oct

It's the beginning of 31 for 21 so I'll start off this month with a Down syndrome related post.  Our Buddy Walk was a couple of weeks ago.

A little hug before we got going.

Pickle's Posse.  L to R: Liam, Elijah, Katheryn, and Tyler.  Elijah was having done of it.  He was hungry and wanted fed right then and there.

The view of downtown Cincinnati from the Purple People Bridge.

While we were walking across the bridge, I was stumbling like I was drunk, but I was too afraid to say anything.  I thought I was getting dehydrated because it was very hot that day.  At one point, the walk slowed to a stop.  Everyone was like "Ooooohhhh, that's what that is."  The bridge was swaying in the wind.  Everyone thought they were getting sick from the heat, but we really were just rocking on the bridge.  Neither option was comforting to me.

This is how exciting the whole thing was to Liam.

I do love the Buddy Walk.  We're not super active in the DSAGC, but we'll walk in the Buddy Walk as long as there is one.

    Yay for the buddy walk. We aren’t super active either – but I do love a fun walk. Looks like a beautiful day!

    Love the pictures. Liam is always such a cutie. I hadn’t heard of this buddy walk before. Thanks for letting us know about it.
