The Buddy Walk

Dang.. I'm behind.

Every year we have the privilege of going to the Buddy Walk to honor our amazing nephew who has downs. It's such an awesome time & we enjoy spending time together as a family.
I was also super happy that Tyler was able to attend this year.

We enjoyed a concert put on by Signing Time which is a DVD series and TV show that teaches kids sign language. Kids with down syndrome do well with sign language and my brother and sister in law have been doing such a great job at teaching Porter.

This was such a great day, and we have always looked forward to the Buddy Walk every year. We are so blessed to have such an amazing nephew - he is such an incredible guy & we are so excited to watch him grow up! WE ARE LUCKY.
