"Riding For Trinity"









God is GOOD!! We can not express how blessed we are to have such great family and friends.
On Saturday they held a benefit for Trinity that started with a Poker Run (motorcycle ride). They had 179 bikers and served around 500 people for the supper. The total as of today that has been raised is a little over $12,000! For those of you that were there can attest to how amazing it was see all those people supporting Trinity. Shannon got the privilege of riding in the Poker Run. My cousins from Des Moines, Cindy and Danny, had an extra bike and let him ride it. It was an experience that I am sure we will both never forget. I followed and went to a majority of the stops. Everytime they rode by on their bikes and waved at us it just gave me chills knowing that they were riding for our little girl. We had so many emotions on Saturday. The love and support that we feel from our family and friends is so overwhelming. Even after being gone from the community for almost a year you all made us feel like we were home! We owe a special thank you to the "Co-Line Team" for all your hard work to make this a huge success. We have provided some pictures from Saturday.
Once again "thank you" to everyone for making Saturday such a huge success!!
Love~The Arthur's

Sounds like a great day for everyone involved! We also couldn't be there but were there in thoughts and prayer. What a display of love and compassion by your surgeon also! It was great to see you all. Thanks for the updates. Love you and God Bless!
