Supercross is an event held every year in Lewiston. Hayden has participated in it several times and tonight they did a victory lap just for Hayden before the races began. Dale, Hayden's younger brother, took the lead on Hayden's motorcycle. It was an emotional and uplifiting thing to watch.
The town has been so giving and loving to the Simmons family. It's neat to see people come together in the wake of a tragedy. We are so grateful to be living in Lewiston again now near the Simmons and are even more grateful to be apart of such a wonderful supportive family. After the news, all of Heidi's siblings dropped everything and made their way here to Lewiston to be with her. One of her sisters drove 36 hours straight from Chicago Illinois to be here. We all pitched in to clean her house, make meals, do laundry, take care of the yard, and plan the funeral. Heidi's church family was incredible in helping out as well. It is hard sometimes to know how to help someone going through such turmoil and heartache but all they really need is love. And the Simmons have been receiving an outpouring of love. It has been inspiring to witness.

| Supercross ended up getting rained out right after the victory lap. It was the craziest rain storm! I felt like I was back in the mid-west! |
