JDRF & PINK Pants?
Hey Everyone! Sorry for the delay in posting this! Two weeks ago we participated in a walk at the Milwaukee County Zoo for JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes). One of Brian's old college roommates' sons (who is 6) was diagnosed earlier this year. Hearing about his new daily routine just sounds absolutely awful - all the pricks and pokes! Anyway - we joined as part of their team to raise money for JDRF. Brian put a challenge out there and all of our family and friends rose to the occasion! THANK YOU! Brian's Challenge - raise $1500 and he would wear a pair of PINK cords (with embroidered green whales) and a Green shirt to match to the walk and wear it for the day. Well - thanks to all of you and your want to see Brian make a fool of himself :) - we raised over $2300. THANK YOU. A cure for this disease is very close to being found. Hopefully it happens soon. I can't imagine being Ethan (or his parents!).

Where in the world did Brian find the pants in the first place? :)
Exciting to see such a great turnout & support for this cause....but yet QUITE humorous to see Brian in these pants!!! LOL It takes a REAL man to pull those off...you must be so proud to be married to him Shana!
Congrats again in having such an amazing goal reached. I pray God blesses this family!!
