Great Strides

Early May each year we participate in the Great Strides walk to benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.  Joey is a very special little guy (or I should probably say young man) and we do it in hopes that they someday soon find a cure!

Donuts, live music, family... the girls have a great time each year.  And H can't get enough of her big cousin Joey.  She follows him everywhere and will often say, "I really love my Joey!". 

In our house he is known as "my Joey"... H has called him that since she was little.


She could hardly stand the drive there...
she  kept saying "I get to see my Joey today!"

H signing Joey's team banner.






Loves him to pieces.




H pushed her way through Joey's friends to find him.
 









We walk with enormous amounts of hope that someday soon they find a cure to Cystic Fibrosis and we walk to celebrate "my Joey".
