Braggy Blog.....beware!

Mary Alice andCharlie were "Warriors for Wells". Over the past week Mary Alice has been raising money for a 8yr old boy named Wells who has cystic fibrosis. Mary Alice asked for pledge donations for her Hop-a-Thon benefiting Wells. She hopped for 2 minutes and raised 100 dollars for the Foundation for Cystic Fibrosis! ( Steve and I could not really believe it...she did all the talking and we were so amazed at how much money she raised) .

What also amazed us was how much she learned about Cystic Fibrosis from school. Next time you talk to her you should ask her about Cystic Fibrosis and Wells. It will really surprise you what a 5 year old can absorb.

Now Charlie is a little but of a different story....yes he jumped too but since he is so little and cannot raise money on his own we helped him out with a donation. But Charlie was not into the Hop a Thon at all, his teachers said they could not get his T-shirt on him, that it was not until almost the whole class was weiring their shirts that charlie would even think about putting his on. He also wanted no part of jumping. Instead here is how he chose to stand....


arms out....saying "hold me mommy...hold me" , all awhile his friends are jumping to the the song "shake your groove thing"...seriously the whole two minutes he stood there with his arms out asking for me to hold him! (sorry something was on my lens when i took the pic)


finally a smile with his friends


and a even bigger smile when the Popsicles arrived!

Hope you are having a good weekend! We went to the Davis Cup today...maybe I will post some pics later.
