Abby (almost 8) and Molly (6) are the daughters of Ramy & Cathy Brooks.
They both enjoy outdoor activities.
Abby is in first grade at Tri-Valley School in Healy and is active in
hockey, awanas, and dance. She loves to ride her bike, go sledding (including
dog sledding) and is learning how to cross-country ski. She has already
won her first dog race and is hoping to get the opportunity to do more.
She has told her mom that she wants to be either a dog musher or a nurse
when she grows up. She is quick to mention that she is allowed to change
her mind between now and when she grows up.
Molly loves to read books and go to story-time at the Tri-Valley Library.
She has already gone cross-country skiing this winter and can't wait to
go ice-skating. She enjoys playing with the pet dog, Arla, and having
Buster, the cat, follow her around as well. She misses her big sister
while she is at school but also enjoys the undivided attention. She also
loves to sing and listen to music. She often prepares bags of clothes
from her dresser for "tomorrow day". She is the planner of the family.
Both the girls love to spend time with their grandparents and enjoy all
the spoiling that they do. The girls will travel to the start in Anchorage
as well as the finish in Nome.
