Here are some photos from the event. Unfortunately I forgot to get a photo of the 'world' on the bald head until the end of the event. It had smudged quite a bit, oh well. The theme was "It's a Small World". I KNOW you will enjoy browsing through the photos of these beautiful children, walking, or rolling their lap while the crowd cheered on their accomplishments. It was a tear jerker for sure. By the way, Ava did so great!

Great pictures, Charissa....they are beautiful children.
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
They are so sweet, so cute! Tell me, what is mini-laps about, a few folks talked about it,, is it tuition for Ava? What is the money raised for?
How precious those faces are! Sweet, sweet, sweet.

Amazing. Those are beautiful kiddos. I can't believe that they raised that much money. Praise God.
Kris,
Mini Laps is the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Little Lighthouse. It's a private, christian, tuition-free preschool for handicapped children. Because it is tuition free for the families, they depend on these types of fundraisers to operate.
How on earth did I miss the fact that Ava is now walking??? Hooray for our two artemovsk kids who are NOW WALKING!!!! :o)
Beautiful! I needed to see those precious children this morning. Thank you for sharing.
I would have LOVED to be there to see that! Those children are PRECIOUS!!
I told Stephanie (Aiden's mommy) that I'm pretty sure the little girl in the hula skirt could be Addy's sister!
I enjoyed meeting you (briefly) at Mini Laps! Hope Ava had a lot of fun making her Lap and is enjoying the school year.
