31 for 21: 2011 Buddy Walk!

The DSAT Buddy Walk was this past Sunday, October 16th. It was lots of fun and everyone had a good time.

This year the walk was at a bigger park with a live band (Samantha Rose....who is an excellent singer). Samantha's little sister happens to have Down Syndrome!

Here are a few pictures from the walk:

Some of our friend's who were a sponsor at the walk (they did ALL the banners, signs, bookmarks in the registration bags, etc).

Getting a group picture taken!

The stage....

Getting the Borden cow mascot!

My sister and the police man and his dog that's at the buddy walk every year. Normally my sister has her big bullmastiff boy with her too, but it was too warm to bring him Sunday.
