Walk of Love

This is our 4th year participating in the Brittany's Hope Walk of Love.

Their mission to help orphans around the world and the families who want to adopt them is so dear to our hearts.  

And not to mention they have the best goodie bags ever

{portable chargers, fidget spinners, ear buds, etc}

and the best entertainment for kids...

Carnival style games with elaborate prizes, face painting, and inflatables.

Tatum was so excited to ride a horse.

Last year Uncle Tim, Aunt Dawn, Charlotte and Whitney couldn't make it to the walk because they arrived home from China with Whitney late the night before.

 

This year, our three China beauties were there together :)

 

Me and my sweet girl

 

This year there was a different course for the walk, still on the grounds of the beautiful Ironstone Ranch, but a bit farther back, closer to the area of the new barn and manmade lake.

Just gorgeous !

The Fun Walk course was so peaceful and beautiful,

with lots of animals that you could get up close with...

After the walk we ate our lunch picnic style in the grass while we waiting for the raffle basket winners to be announced.

Tatum's sandwich was as big as her head !

 

And I took more pictures with the beautiful landscape in the background:

 

As usual...Aunt Kristy won a raffle basket.

I swear she wins EVERY time !

This time it was a Star Wars themed backpack set.

{better than the drum set she won last year I suppose!}

 

 Once the walk festivities were done we set off on another adventure...

to Corn Cob Acres

There were goats to feed...

and a barrel train to ride...

 

and a huge corn pit to play in !

 It's like a sandbox but full of corn,

which is very sensory appealing.

 

It was an unseasonably warm day,

not exactly what you want when you're at a Fall event.

So instead of hot cider to warm us up we enjoyed some snow cones to cool us down.
