Jingle Bell Run/Walk for Arthritis

Hey everyone!

This year I'm participating in a run/walk on Saturday, December 12, here in Madison for the Arthritis Foundation. Now, I'm assuming my dad isn't the only one who inherited the bad joints gene and passed it lovingly on to his progeny, so I'm hoping you guys will be willing to give some support to the foundation. I'm running the 5K on a team with the professional pharmacy fraternity that I'm pledging this year, Phi Delta Chi, and being a newbie to the frat, I'm hoping to show off a little by doing some awesome fundraising. I've pasted a link below; it should take you to the participant search page, search for me, and I'm pretty sure you're all tech savvy enough to find your way from there. Those of you who are cool enough to be my Facebook friends, there's a box on my main profile with a button that says "Sponsor Me." I really appreciate any support you can give, and my completely cartilage-less right femur head thanks you too! (I'm pretty sure my left one does too, but there isn't medical proof for that one yet)

Happy Birthday Leona Delores Branson Missouri!

I'm happy to announce the day of birth of our very own Leona Delores Branson Missouri! Happy Birthday! We all hope you're happier than a pig in poop today. Love you darling!

Happy Birthday, Tom!

What's up with the snow coming down today?? You say Iowa has two seasons, October and disgusting -- now, I'm not so sure that we're not down to just one..

I hope you're having fun with Bill, please say "hi" from us all. We think of you always.

The picture is from Copenhagen, outside a cafe in Bredgade, this July. We had a great time, once we adjusted to the rainy summer days again. We went sailing on the Canals and spent lots of time with everyone there.

We really miss you. Bebbe and Finn are here and we're having a really good time; they have been here a week and go back next Sunday. This morning Eva bought cloth to make a sleepover bag, and Sara started on a new batch of pot holders.

Next week is ITBS week, and they're both looking forward to it. Sara's first trimester in JH ended great with her strongest percentage in pre-alg., and Eva's is really enjoying being in the oldest grade at Lincoln with the big sister there. She started in Iowa City Girls' Choir this September.
Thinking of you, missing you. Love, PW.
