MS Walk 2010

Last Sunday, for the 6th year in a row, Kevin's Heroes participated in the Tri Cities 5 km Walk for MS. Although we started the walk in the rain yet again, by the half-way point we were peeling the layers off as the sun came out and it warmed up.

We had 12 walkers this year and together, we raised our second highest total yet - $5,575! (I had 2 more pledges come in since I sent out my thank-you email) This brings our 6 year team total to $29,713! I cannot tell you how proud I am of this team and our contribution to MS research. This, along with the recent news that Kevin's MRI showed no new lesions in the last 5 years - proof that his disease is progressing slowly - makes me so grateful for the support of all our family in friends.

Go Team MS!

I just love this photo. So proud, showing off her tattoo. (nope - never thought I'd be saying that about my 4-year old)

Claudia and Ismael.

One of these years I'll get to the start line first and take a picture of the team coming towards me instead of walking away from me.

Re-fueling at the half-way mark.

Mommy and Bradyn, half-way. Just a little different from her second year...

Bradyn almost walked the whole 5 km all on her own. Just 2 small breaks: One on Brittany's back...

... and one on Claudia's shoulders.

The last 1 km burst of energy. Brittany, Claudia, Bradyn and Natasha decided to run. (Didn't last long, but it was a good effort.)

Making sure she got every last drop of milk in that bowl of cereal. (Thanks for getting all the food ready for us Jane & Glenn!)

Big smiles, with Uncle Dallas and Aunty Ita.

We hope you can join us for the walk next year.
