MS150

This weekend was the big MS150. It was Aunt Debbie's first time to ride in the race. Uncle Jack, Kathie, her friend Susan and Paul were all also in this year's ride. The wind made it a pretty tough ride but they all made it from Houston to Austin safe and sound. A little tired, a little sunburned, a little wind blown...but safe none the less.

The rest of the family crew had fun off bikes. We all had time to visit over yummy mexican food at the Wenck family's favorite restaurant....TEXICAN. The kids did really well playing together. Emmy girl wasn't feeling her best so she rested most of the time. But she was super excited when we said it was time to go see Mommy and Daddy. She talked the whole ride about how Mommy and Daddy were riding their bikes.

I wish I had pictures of Debbie and the rest of Team Choate (as I like to call them) making it across the finish line. Emmy was running a really high fever so we thought it best to let her rest at our house while Abby and the rest of the crew (Rand, Grandma Ann, MeMaw, DoDaddy, Russell, Melissa, Mona and friends) waited for Team Choate to ride across the finish line. We were able to join up with everyone later for dinner and bring Christian and Emmy with us. Emmy was her happy normal self but the time we made it up to meet every one for dinner.

We heard from very exciting news over the weekend too. Russell and Melissa are ENGAGED. CONGRATS to the happy couple. We also heard about Russell's very sweet proposal and saw the very pretty ring.

Here are the pictures I was able to take over the weekend.
