A new Praise!

June 19, 2013

For the summer, Grayson is spending the night with Lollie & Pop on Tuesday nights so that Lollie and Grayson can have a "fun" day on Wednesdays.  Today we went on a Nature Scavenger Hunt to find something fuzzy, a noise, something rough, something smooth, a stick, something long, something round and more!  We found them all today....we had such fun at the park.

We had not marked Grayson's growth chart since November, so it was an exciting day for us!  DRUM ROLL please......since November, Grayson has grown 2 1/2 inches and has gained 5 pounds.  It appears that we have finally gotten his medications on target he is eating more and obviously feel so well.

Thank you all for your continued thoughts and prayers!

Time Goes By Way Too Fast!

Well, it's been a few months since I've blogged!  So much has come and gone.

1st I just have to tell you about our Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Great Strides 5k walk on May 18th.  We had a team of 40 walkers ranging in ages 3-78 and 3 furry friends, who all crossed the finish line!  Team Grayson raised over $14,000 and all the Charlotte Teams, comprised of over 600 people, combined raised over $229,000!  How awesome is that?  The weather was perfect at Freedom Park and the festivities were so much fun.  Team Grayson won the award~ "Most money raised by a new team".

We were one of the 1st teams to start the walk and as I look back over the sea of people behind us circling the pond at the park, emotions just flooded my heart.  To know that so many people are passionate to find a cure for CF is so wonderful and helps those of us with a direct connection to CF know that there is HOPE for a cure.

Thank you to all of our sponsors, family and friends that love and support us each day.  We will begin again in October to raise money again for the 2014 event.  We hope we can count you in!
