Yard Sale/Century Ride

Kari Woodward in our ward put on a huge yard sale for a friend of hers who is very ill with breast cancer. It was not only nice for us to clean out our garage and rooms to donate, but it was a lovely event to attend. The family getting all the proceeds have two small children, and a lot of medical bills. It was so impressive how many people chipped in to help raise money for this family.

There were several people who gave of there time that day. Above is a man who made balloon animals all morning. Aliza was thrilled when he made her an Ariel balloon. Avery got a really cute blue Pluto that was huge. Abbie was also able to help out with the YW in our ward face painting, selling baked goods, and holding signs out on the street to attract people.

We literally ran from this event to get flu shots, and then over to a Walgreens parking lot to cheer on Micah and Kyle on their century bike ride. I was using an app on my phone trying to track where Micah was on the bike course, but the app would stop working every once in awhile. I was so worried we would miss them, but thankfully we didn't.

We made a few signs to help cheer them on. The Sondrup's were so nice to drop by and cheer them on too. Apparently, Micah was not having much luck with tires because he had three flat tires on this ride.

We had fun giving them high fives as they were passing through. They started their 100 mile ride at Town Square, went up and around Red Rock canyon, out to Lake Las Vegas and back to Town Square. These organized bike rides can be a lot of fun. Biking is definitely one of Micah's favorite things to do these days.
