Hold 'em for MS

My sister McKell's mom has M.S. McKell has been heavily involved in fundraising for M.S. since her mom's diagnosis, and I'll do anything I can to support her. McKell does a bike marathon every year, and as part of that bike marathon, they hold a fundraiser. Texas Hold 'em, Craps tables, Black Jack, roulette, drinks and catered food. I went last year with West and had a lot of fun with Daniel at the craps table. Somehow he understands it, and is trying to teach me. I couldn't lose for the life of me last year on that damn table. This year proved to be the same, though Daniel did better than I did this go round. It's all legal, as you pay a $25 cover charge to get in to the fundraiser and they give you chips. After that all the gambling is just for chips with no real money backing it, so all the dealers are extremely helpful in the betting process. It's a great way to learn about all the games with out actually having to go to Vegas and loose your life savings (or in my case, win one).

West earned brownie points. He joined me, broken foot and all drugged up and all.

Daniel and me (and Kel off to the right) at the craps table, doing what we do best at this fundraiser. It's becoming one of my favorite things to do with Daniel. I think right here I won on a "yo" and he was giving me dirty looks.
