BP MS150



Ben rode the BP MS 150 for the 2nd year in a row!  He really loves the ride, the camaraderie, and the small part he is doing to help find a cure for MS.  I see the tolls of MS frequently in the hospital, but Ben really gets to meet the people afflicted with MS that he is helping during the ride and on the overnight in LaGrange. They are all so appreciative and it really helps you to be thankful for a strong, healthy body.  We are all so thankful for the donations this year.

Last year Eli was in my belly when we met at the finish line, but this year he was able to get in on the fun!  He always lights up when he sees Daddy!

Eli also got to try some German fare:  sauerkraut, bratwurst and wiener schnitzel!  He liked the pickle best!

One proud rider!
Eli and Mommy got a quick overnight visit with Mammaw and Pappaw.  Pappaw enjoyed relaxing for a minute with Eli in between feeding the cows and the catfish with him!

The Yorks graciously hosted us on Friday night and Eli finally found a dog, Smokey, that tolerated him!
