Support Us!

Hi All,
As many of you know Aaron and I are participating in the National Multiple Sclerosis Society Group Health Bike MS Ride (AKA MS150). Which is a 150 mile bike ride over 2 days in September. This is an event that my parents have been involved with for the last couple of years and have had a lot of fun.

The reasons we are participating in the MS150 Ride is because we want to do something for the people who have been diagnosed - and because we want to do everything to prevent more people from learning what it means to live with this disease. Today, there is no cure for multiple sclerosis, and with diagnosis occurring most frequently between the ages of 20 and 50, many individuals face a lifetime filled with unpredictability. People living in the northwest are at higher risk and women have a higher risk. So I (Keegan) ride for a selfish reason. I fall within all the prime categories for having MS. So I ride for those who are fighting now and for those who may fight in the future.

If you would like to sponsor us in our effort please feel free to do by going to our pledge pages at:

Keegan's Pledge page

Also thanks to everyone who has pledged to us so far!

PS-If anyone would like to join the ride, please feel free. You can either contact us or go to the MS150 Ride page directly: http://bikewas.nationalmssociety.org/site/PageServer?pagename=BIKE_WAS_homepage

Partying!

This year I got to celebrate the Fourth of July twice. On the evening of the 3rd I headed to Lake Tapps to see by friend Jen and her hubby Todd. They hosted a great get together of friends and family minus young children (this was the adults acting like children party). There were many loud booms during the evening and tasty margaritas made by Don. I got a treat which was seeing my cousin Dani and Chandler which is always a fun. Thanks Jen for a great night!

On the 4th, I headed to Ames lake for another party at Kelly and Jill's place. Again a great time. We swam, drank, talked, ate, and watch some incredible fireworks. This was a group new and old Powderpigs and other friends. There was alot going on but was very comfortable and made for a good time. Kelly roasted a whole pig and it was tasty! Thanks Kelly and Jill for a great time.

Aaron's Gone, Keegan's Playing

Well Aaron is out fishing once again and I miss him very much. The weekend he left I headed to Portland to see my sister and the kids. We had a good time. We went out in the boat, started building Alex and Peter's new fort, and then did a great bike ride. I took picture on our bike ride. We went 14 miles. Peter was in the trail-a-bike behind Kirstan, Alex rode her bike, and I had Tippi in the trailer behind my bike. I am pretty sure was fun was had by all.
