Poker Run Benefit




This past Saturday people gathered to show their support for Trinity. Bikers came from all around the state and some traveled from Illinois. This was another humbling experience for Shannon and I. We would like to say a special "Thank You" to Paul and Caryn Webb, and Randy and Gale Johnson. They put a lot of work into an awesome event! It started with a 100 mile Poker Run (motorcycle ride) including 5 stops. It then ended in front of the Montezuma Tap Room where they hosted a dinner and dance. They also had different raffles and a 50/50. The winner of the Poker hand gave the money back to Trinity and the winner of the 50/50 did the same. There honestly are so many amazing things that happened that day, I don't have enough blog space to blog about it. It was great seeing people we knew and people that we didn't come and support our baby. Someday we will tell Trinity about the amazing people that love her and supported her when she needed it the most. Shannon and I did not know the Webb's before they did this, but they have become our friends for life!! Thank you to everyone that came on Saturday and showed your support. You will forever be engraved in our hearts!!

Trinity is doing really good. She started therapy yesterday in Pella. We wanted to get her started on her therapy so we were not getting behind. We will make that trip twice a week. We have still been trying the solids, but she is not real sure about it and still has some issues with choking.

We have not found a home yet in Minnesota, so please keep that in your prayers. It is getting to the point that we really need to be finding something soon so we can get Trinity the doctors that she needs. We have looked at so many homes to buy that we feel like God is telling us that we are not suppose to buy right now. So with that being said we are going to rent until we are comfortable with buying something.
The girls and I continue to live in Iowa and Shannon started his job yesterday.
