Where else should she sit?

Since Mom's laptop wasn't available Maggie decided to sit on her iPad instead. It only makes sense, really.

Walking to end MS

Mom and Dad have a good friend who has MS. Their friend Nikki was diagnosed about nine years ago, and while she has been doing well recently, it has not been the easiest journey. Several years ago, Mom and Dad started joining Nikki for three mile MS Walk events in Marietta, Ga outside Atlanta near where Nikki lives. Three years ago Mom and Dad did their first 3-Day, 50-Mile Challenge Walk. They did the same walk last year, too, and this past fall they biked 100 miles over two days with Bike MS.

They are gearing up for their third 3-Day, 50-Mile walk, this time in Savannah, Ga. So far, Mom and Dad have traveled 227 miles and raised over $7000 for MS research and patient services. Well, it's fundraising time again, and while I don't do this often on the blog, I wanted to put the request out there for a little support. Mom and Dad each have to raise $1500 to participate in the 3-Day walk. This is one of their favorite events, but the fundraising is so challenging (more challenging than the 50 miles, for sure).

Any support is welcome and greatly appreciated. You can click here to donate to Dad, or click here to donate to Mom. (It's not a competition ...)

Thank you so much! We love the support we get from our amazing cat friends!

Cats cooking their food

So the other day Mom was in the kitchen prepping some meat for dinner and Huggy Bear was begging for some of it. Mom looked at him and said, "Silly Bear, you can't have this. It's not cooked." At the point she realized that you don't see cats sitting around a campfire like hobos cooking the food they just caught. No, we actually eat fresh raw food that we catch. Now we still didn't get any raw meat from Mom, but it certainly was a funny mental image.

Perfect napping spot

Huggy Bear thinks Mom's new iPad is a perfect spot to nap.
