March for Babies 2012

First of all, thank you to all of our friends and family who donated to the March of Dimes this year!  We woke up this morning, excited to walk in our 3rd March for Babies.  The skies were sunny and I even saw an entire family of foxes right across the street from our house!

The skies were still very sunny as we started the drive, however, dark clouds started rolling in when we neared downtown.  We had heard that there could be storms later in the afternoon, but had heard nothing about 9am!  Then, the rain started to fall as we pulled into the parking garage.  We got all the way to the Sprint Center before the heavens decided to open up and a huge storm moved in!  Luckily, we had a picture taken before we had to run to shelter under a tent.

So, we hung out in the tent for a bit, but finally decided to bolt for the parking garage once the lightning started.  I felt so bad for all of the families who were there just like us, excited to walk for such a great cause.  I even saw a lot of teeny babies there and knew that they had probably had very recent NICU stays.  We were bummed that we weren't able to see any of our friends but were happy that we made it home safe and sound!
