Street Meet 2013

It was a great turn out today for the Ups and Downs Association's 21st Street Meet.  Not sure of the exact number of participants but it seemed like a couple hundred at least.  It was a beautiful sunny morning walking through Fish Creek Park with some of my most favorite peeps!  Thanks again girls!  You are all super stars!  We love you to the moon:)

It was neat to see all of the families with their children out celebrating and supporting each other. Everyone was smiling and enjoying the day.  Just seeing happy, thriving babies and children with loving, devoted parents, grandparents and siblings made me smile.  We will one of those families next year!  I also met a young man who is in his 3rd year of Broadcasting at Mount Royal University.  Which just proves that the sky is the limit if you just believe!  He figures I should name the baby David, because that's his name.  How cute is that?

They had prizes for the best team spirit, which included creative costumes or matching t-shirts etc. Prizes for the most funds raised, as well as raffle gift baskets.  There was face painting, air brush tattoos and balloon animals for the kiddies. We all got T-shirts and a picnic lunch with music entertainment following our stroll.  It was an inspiring event to be a part of and we all had a great time!  We were rookies this year, but Baby Lang's Gang will rock it next year!  

This is definitely an event that we will be attending on an annual basis and our team will be bigger for Street Meet 2014.  Go Baby Lang's Gang!
