The Challenge Starts

This summer I will be climbing Mount Rainier and more importantly, raising valuable funds for breast cancer research at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Reasearch Center through the Climb to Fight Breast Cancer. Thanks! (PLEASE USE THE BROWN "MAKE A DONATION" BUTTON BELOW)

Why am I doing this?

My wife is a survivor! She's my inspiration.

I'm highly motivated to participate in this climb! I, like many of you, have had my life affected by breast cancer. Lets get together and make the future for our mothers, sisters and daughters, cancer free. This combined with my love of the mountains....and THE Mountain....it's a no brainer.

The Challenge.

Since this is a charity climb, the stakes are high. I must raise $2500 by April 2nd, 2010, and have a total of $5000 raised by June 3rd, 2010. When I first heard this figures, I thought "no way!". But after talking with Lisa about it, and knowing that I'd have her full supprt, I began to think I really could do this!

Playin' in the snow!


A couple weeks ago I took Gavin and Payton out to the Gold Creek SnoPark for some fun in the snow! We hiked a few miles in to the woods, blazed our own trails. The snow had a thick crust of ice over the top from the freezing rain that fell the night before, so instead of making snowmen, we tried to buld an ice fort! Then we hiked further back in the woods, found a nice cozy place and made some hot chocolate!

Great times with the kids!
