A few of us ladies from work decided to participate in the Walk for the Homeless in D.C. today. The course was a 3 mile path around the mall. It was very beautiful! It was a little cold at first but then it warmed up and turned out to be a very nice day. Amy and Wendy brought Lansing and Shilo...it is always nice being around dogs. I miss mine.
I love that the company I work for is really involved in charity programs and events. I have really enjoyed the ones that I have participated in so far. My favorite was volunteering at a rescue horse ranch in Colorado. I love animals and especially horses; they're such a beautiful animal. I am also looking forward to buying Christmas gifts for some of the local and military families in need this holiday season. This is something that we have done the past few years and I am hoping to get Colin involved this year by having him pick out a few toys for the kids.
