Biking for ALS

Hi, Friends, Family and New Friends!

We haven't posted for a long time, and the reason is... well...LIFE!  Our busy lives fly on, whether we want them to or not, eh?

Ben is well.  We are well.  Although, with losing a nurse in the last month, we have been super-busy.  And super-tired.  But the kids aren't, that's for sure!  Benjamin is now 5 and will be heading to Kindergarten next year.  Sophie is almost 8 and will be a third grader!  Yikes. We are so incredibly proud of them.  They make us smile daily. 

BIKING FOR ALS:

A friend of Ben's contacted us recently. He is doing a major bike trek, and he wanted to do it to support people with ALS.  His name is Grant, and he is riding across the country on his bike from Oregon to Columbus, Ohio.  We are very excited for him, and want to support him and ALS patients as well!

If you would like to support Grant's mission, which is AMAZING in my opinion, here is the link you can hit to donate.  If you know nothing about ALS, or Lou Gehrig's Disease, please scroll down and read below or hit one of the links on the side.

ALS Guardian Angels

We would like to support ALS research, but in many ways, there are patients who need help NOW!  I am a big fan of ALS Guardian Angels.  Stu and Lisa are amazing! They get communication devices, vans, wheelchairs, Bipaps, you name it to people with ALS all over the country.  Please consider hitting the above link and donating to them first and foremost!


Thanks so much for supporting us and supporting Grant!  Maybe Grant could send me pictures to post on his trip!  And write some comments for him below!


Thanks again!  Here's some more recent pics you haven't seen, including our ramp fiasco and our new ramp!
