Help us with a name, wont you?


In the coming weeks we are organizing a team for the first Autism Speaks Walk in Utah. We are excited about this new opportunity to do our part and get involved. The Autism community is growing so quickly and we feel it is so important to get involved somehow.

We need to come up with a name for our walking team, and we want it to be centered around our son, Nick. So we wondered if you could help us think of something creative. So far we have a couple:

Nick-er-bockers
Nick-of-timers
Supermarket Sideshow
Nick Nacks

You get the idea. Why is it little sisters always know how to put things into words? The other day Jodi, Nick and Allie were at the store. Nick went into a particularly dramatic episode of weeping, whailing, gnashing teeth, laying on the store floor, making a scene. Jodi, my extreeeemly patient bride, stayed very calm, allowing Nick to make a scene and not give into it. While this was going on, our little 3 year old Allie began singing, "Everybody's Looking at Nick. Everybody's Looking at Nick." In a cute sassy sing-songy way only an only daughter can do. This is why the leading name right now is Supermarket Sideshow.

I am not very creative so no name from me, but I would love to participate in the walk. Let me know.
