Trekin' for Brekin

Inga, Elsa, and I joined our friends, the Nieterts, on the annual Heart Walk for Linn County. Their son Brekin is Elsa's age and was born with four heart defects. We walked to support and raise awareness about heart disease. The walk was a lot of fun, even though it started down-pouring in the middle of the walk! The girls had a great time before, during, and after the walk with Brekin and his older brother, Payson, who is Inga's age.

Elsa after the walk. A little wet, only a small bump on her head from her nose dive during the walk, but happy to have a snack!

Inga and Payson after the walk. They held hands most of the walk. Such good friends! Inga also had a couple stumbles on the walk but was able to quickly shake them off and keep going!

Inga imitating Payson. We've seen him make this face many times!

Inga and Payson again. Drenched buds!

Elsa was a bit tired after the walk!
