A cause close to my heart!

I wanted to let everyone know that on April 5th in Trussville, that the first annual Casey's Cause race will be held. There is a 5K as well as a 1 mile "fun run." The boys and I will be participating in the fun run, double stroller and all!

Casey’s Cause was incorporated in March 2007 by a group of family and friends of Casey Marie Grant, a seven-year old girl who was diagnosed with Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP), a rare blood platelet disorder. Nine days after being diagnosed, Casey passed away on January 25, 2007 from a massive hemorrhage. For more information, please see the website: http://caseyscause.org

Yay for me!!

I got an exciting phone call this morning! It was from "Parenting" magazine informing me that I have won their annual photo contest! I entered some pics of the boys and one of Trevor won the grand prize for his age group. There are three categories: babies, toddlers and pre-school. His picture will be in the August issue and I will get a free point-and-shoot digital camera! The magazine is even going to call and "interview" me for a blurb about the pic. hee hee. I have attached the winning photo. Yay!!

Welcome to our newest family member!!

Here is the latest addition to the Warren house, Charlie. He is a rescue from the Pell City Animal Shelter. He is such a great dog and the boys absolutely LOVE him.

Hike at Oak Mountain

Thought I would share some pics from our family trip to Oak Mountain State Park. It is the first time we have taken the boys. We all had a great time. I am sure we will be back real soon!
