Last weekend we attended the 3rd annual Ethan's Run!  I always look forward to this run/walk as it holds a dear place in my heart...Heidi, Ethan's mommy, and her family/friends do such a wonderful job with this event and it keeps getting better and better!  Way to go Skidmore's!
 
Started the morning with yummy pancake breakfast!

The boys and Nurse Kristi's dog---they loved him!
 
Me and my Heart Hero!!!!

Tyson's Story on display!

We all enjoyed some yummy brownies & cookies courtesy of my dad!!

The kids played on all the awesome bounce houses, slides & rock climbing!!

T-man was not very fond of going down the slide, so he'd climb to the top and then climb right back down :o)

His face is priceless!
 


Of course stopped for one more snack...

 And then during the awards they had all the heart kiddos sit together on a bench

Love this picture of the heart kids!!

Giving G-pa knuckles & blowing it up
