MS walk in Pasadena and the YAMS (youth against multiple schlerosis)

- How many sugar’d items can you find in this picture?
My family and I had a wonderful time up in Pasadena over the weekend. We went up there to support our fellow MET2 member Valerie who has MS. We joined their team (the YAMS) and met some wonderful and lively people. I hope to get some additional photos later to share. We have a few of just our small group. And yes, that is Mitch Mustain from the USC Trojans … He was our quaterback for our flag football game…

My son asked me what multiple schlerosis was and I summed it up for him by saying “Its when your brain isn’t able to talk to the rest of your body”… hoping that it was A) correct, and B) was couched in terms he would understand. I told him we could look it up on the Internet when we got home.
Mr. Brennan, this link is for you:

And just so you know (Kaley and Charlotte), my kids were singing “that YAMS milk moo moo moo moo…” all the way home. I will video them singing it and post it later since they have the whole routine down as well.
More pics of the flag football game…
