On Saturday we headed to Pasadena bright and early to participate in the walk to raise funds for Cystic Fibrosis research... We used to usually join the walk that Dave's uncle and aunt organize in Worcester, MA but since we've moved far away from them we were very excited to find out that by walking in another location their Tiger team can become a national team and that we can walk as part of the Tiger Team:-) And this year Jim, Alyson and their kids could walk with us! in Pasadena, CA where the Rose Bowl happens!
ローズボールに到着すると待っていたのは特別に用意されていたタイガーチームの看板...今回はお揃いで着れるタイガーチームのティーシャツが無かったからこのサインのお陰で他のチームから見分けがついて良かった...：）
When we got to the Rose Bowl we found out that we have a sign that we can carry around... Since we didn't have matching t-shirts or anything it was really nice to have a sign that says which team we belonged to... The Tiger Team:-)
マディソンの誕生日会で来てくれたマディソンの友達にあげた動物のビーチボールにトラがあったからそれも一様持ってきました、カワイイでしょ...；）We brought a Tiger beach ball we got as Madison's birthday party favor to the walk as well so we could have something tiger-ish...
デイブとジムのいとこのジェシカがマディソン達３人にトラ柄の髪留めを作ってくれました...リリーとグレースはちゃんと着けてかわいいのにマディソンは嫌がってまったっくだめでした：(Dave and Jim's cousin Jessica was sooo sweet and made tiger hair clips for the girls! Lily and Grace put them on for the walk and they looked so cute but Madison somehow was scared of it:-(
５キロのウォークが終わる前にローズボールの前で写真撮影...
We got to sneak in a short photo session during our 5k walk...
そして、もう少しで終わりの所で公園の直ぐ横に停めてあったアイスクリームトラックの音楽に合わせて一ダンスしなきゃいけなかったマディソン...やっぱりビデオとれば良かったな〜...As soon as Madison started to hear music from the Ice Cream truck parked by the field, she had to stop and dance! Too bad I didn't get my flip out to film, instead I took a picture...
CFウォークの後計画ではハリウッドに寄って家に帰る予定だったんだけど、デイブとジムが家に帰って運動出来る様に家に帰る事にしました。そしてママ達と子供達はマンションの部屋でのんびり遊んでリラックスする事が出来ました...：）アリソンおばさんがマディソンと布団を使って小さな基地を作ってくれたのでリリーとマディソンはその中で大はしゃぎ、しかも一緒にお昼寝しようとするなんて仲良いなー...：）We changed our plan to go to Hollywood and headed home via Five Guys Burgers and Fries after the walk so that we can relax and the daddies get to exercise together... Alyson and I stayed with the kids as usual and tried to relax...:-) Alyson made a fort over Madison's crib and Lily and Madison played together for a while and even tried to take a nap together...:-)
そしてその後お寿司が食べたいと言ったジムとアリソンの為に最後の夕ご飯を食べに出掛けてました。その途中で止まった公園で遊び休憩を取って...That night we headed out for our final dinner out together...Jim and Alyson felt like sushi so Anna was happy to oblige...on the way we stopped by a playground so the girls could run around a bit...
この３人は本当に仲良く遊べて良かった...みんな帰っちゃったらマディソン寂しがるだろうなー...１０日間だったけど何だかとっても沢山いとこのリリーから学んだようなきが、来てくれてありがとうねー：）＿It was so fun to see the girls interact with each other...I know Madison is going to miss her cousins...it seemed like she learned so much just in the ten days that her big cousin was here.
