Benjamin, Ben and Evan at the starting lineOn Saturday, April 19th, our family ran/walked in the 1 mile Fun Run at the local Race for Autism. As many of you know, Benjamin was diagnosed with high functioning autism when he was 3. We have been really blessed to have great schools, programs and resources in this area for him. This was a really fun day for our family. Benjamin saw several classmates and teachers and we saw several people from church that came out to support the race. Evan was happy that the T-shirts were his favorite color.
Evan's pants were loose so he kept holding his shorts up as he was running or they would start to shimmy down his legs with each step. He was so funny!

Jacob and Evan had fun bouncing in the moon bounce.
Ben and Benjamin wait in line for the big kids bounce.

Benjamin had a lot of fun. He ran a half a mile before getting tired and walking.
Pretty good for a first run.
