We attended the Hearing Loss Association of America's kick-off luncheon for the First Annual Walk4Hearing in Columbus today. We all had a wonderful time. We met so many individuals affected by hearing loss and enjoyed talking with them about their experiences. We met the 400th person implanted with a cochlear implant. We even met the national President of HLAA, Anne Pope. Everyone enjoyed meeting Drew. He even said "hi" a few times, and everyone heard him scream "more" during Anne Pope's speech, as he wanted more applesauce!
We would like to remind you about the Walk4Hearing and Team Turn On My Ears! We are really excited about our team and would like for you to join us! You can make a monetary donation, but we would really like to have a lot of people participate in the walk with us. Even if you can only walk a few steps, join us. Every dollar raised helps a great organization. Please support HLAA, but also support the coolest boy we know, Drew!

I can't wait to do my HLAA walk in October! Are you going to go Reno?
Hi Abbie,
Where are you walking?
We're not going to be able to go to Reno. It is Father's Day weekend, and things are a bit busy. I'll make it one of these years!

I just finished the FLorida walk! I did a little rambling around over the weekend and am now totally zonked! I need to blog about it...but am just about too tired!
I love that you're doing this...I'm so proud of you! :)
