Sierra's Race Against Meningitis

There has been so much going on the last a couple months- sorry we haven't posted in awhile. We are getting ready for Sierra's race next Saturday. For anyone that hasn't heard about it, we are having a 5K Run/Walk & Sierra's Kids Fun Run on April 12th. We are using the race proceeds to help raise awareness about Meningitis and help people with the cost of the vaccination. We have had a great response so far and are very hopeful that it will continue to grow! We have so many wonderful people helping and are so thankful for every one of them. If you haven't already, check out Sierra's web page; www.SierrasRaceAgainstMeningitis.com.
Makenna is still her busy self and continues to brighten our days. She now gives us big "Sierra Hugs", they are the best! Her new thing is when we are taking pictures, and we tell her to say cheese, she has the funniest, biggest smile I have ever seen- We are sure she has her Auntie's spirit with her. Thank you for continuing to keep us in your prayers, and especially for Thursday. Also, please keep Micah and Grandpa Mel in your prayers for continued strength & healing.

We were trying to teach Makenna how to jump rope..

Daddy put Makenna's hair in a mohawk. Yeah, that's the cheesy smile.
Makenna had so much fun playing ball with Micah & showing him her belly button.


Great Aunt Tracie & Kenna

She LOVES purses...

Our good friends, Danelle & Freddie, had twins last week, so we were getting a few of Makenna's things out for them...she wanted one last time in the swing. Uncle Ty made Makenna a race car...he is so creative & Makenna thought she was pretty neat pretending to drive it.

Makenna is such a pretty little girl (Dan, are you already starting to worry?!?)! And her hair is getting so long! Love the picture with all the sticky notes on her face! We wish we were there to run in the race! We think about you guys and pray for you all the time!

I just LOVE all those pictures! Makenna is so beautiful. I like how you are teaching her to jumprope! It reminds me of the old days. You are in our prayers all the time. See you Saturday!

We just did some catching up on your page. How precious Makenna is and what wonderful parents you are! We are so blessed to have friends like you and raising our girls together is the greatest gift! We love you guys--and loved every precious picture! Makenna is INCREDIBLE and the MOHAWK is classic!

I will not acquiesce in on it. I regard as polite post. Particularly the designation attracted me to read the unscathed story.
