It was a beautiful day for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Walk in downtown West Palm Beach.
Rachel heard about the walk last week and was so touched by some of the stories about children with diabetes. She really wanted to support this cause. The weather was gorgeous. The views were beautiful.
There were many teams from different companies, schools, towns - even a large group of girls supporting the Jonas Brothers, as one is diabetic. We saw Rachel's track coach from middle school. She was so thrilled to see Rachel. They talked track and the coach asked Rachel to send her the high school schedule as she would love to come to one of Rachel's track meets. We thought that was pretty cool.
Our trek was along the Intracoastal Waterway. It doesn't get much better than that.
After the two mile walk, we relaxed on the grass, listened to music and enjoyed some of the refreshments provided to the walkers.
It was truly a beautiful morning spent making another special memory with my favorite girl. 
Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. Make up for the hour we're losing by enjoying every minute!!

We went to TJ Maxx this evening. I found these two lonesome little plates and just had to give them a home. I think they'll fit in just fine.
So now I feel like I have to scavenge all my local-ish TJ Maxx stores to find others to keep them company. They're awful cute, don't you think?
Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. Make up for the hour we're losing by enjoying every minute!!
