Yay for 10 miles!


Henry and I walked 10 miles today (5 miles this morning, and again 5 this afternoon) in an effort to get in shape for the Briggs and Al Walk/Run for Children's Hospital in Milwaukee on the 9Th. of October. Many of you will remember how sick Ellie was at 5 years old, and how Children's Hospital doctored her into a remission. We have been so grateful that we try to participate in the event every year. This year Elise and Belle will be joining us...I've playfully joked with Elise that she has to get in good physical shape:) We just got the t-shirts in the mail this week. Lots to look forward to. Today we share a photo of Ellie and Drumstick, a cat originally owned by James, and a favorite pet of the neighborhood. Although to be honest, we do have one neighbor who doesn't appreciate Drummy entering his house with him, and watching the news at night perched on his lap:) I don't know...I see the humor. The animal seeks out the one person who is 'allergic' and spends an hour there...hmmmmmm.
