We went to Provo High this weekend for a Families Supporting Adoption walk in honor of Birthmother's day. Each "walker" filled out who they were walking in honor of.
Branden's family and my mom came to support us. Everyone got a balloon and we walked 2 laps.
And we got sexy "Families Supporting Adoption" T shirts
Mike (Brother-in-law), Kami (Branden's Sisiter), Ronnie (Branden's Dad), Kevin (Branden's Brother), Amanda (Sister-in-law), me, Colleen (Branden's Mom), Branden and baby Blake in front.
At the end of the walk, we all gathered in the middle of the track and everyone released their balloon in honor of birthmoms. (I was conflicted, I could picture the little bird or racoon that is going to choke and die on my latex balloon that ends up in the mountains)
Cosmo was there to play with the kids. He played the field races/games with them and posed for lots of pictures. Branden tried to get him to hold a red balloon, but a little kid wanted the balloon and Branden was too nice to say no....lucky for Cosmo!
There was also a fire truck and an ambulance for the kids to play on.
After the walk we went to a Polynesian festival across the street. Then we went to the Mall (YUCK - one of our least favorite places in the world) and bought branden some jeans for his birthday. Then we went to Mapleton to Don & Leah's (my pseudo-parents) house and had a birthday barbeque with family and friends. Leah got us a transformers cake which Branden LOVED.
Our friends, Steve and Rachel, came and let us borrow a baby for the evening. Samantha is 4 weeks old and is so sweet! We had a really neat experience at her baby blessing a few weeks ago (no, I'm not going to share). We were so glad they came!
And we had to get one blackmail foto of Branden with the mask from the cake on. Who is that you say?....It is Optimus Prime of course.
