MuckFest 2016

Well, we survived this year's MuckFest and it was a blast.  Unfortunately, Jeff was not able to participate due to an unexpected trip to Florida.  But, I still had a blast and went through the course with my sister (Shiloh) and our friend's Katie & Steve.  We got wet and muddy and had lots of laughs along the way.

Thank you to everyone who helped support us and cheered us on.  With your help, our "Greatest Show On Dirt" team raised over $16,000 to help find a cure for MS.  We'll be back in 2017 to help stomp our MS. 

T-Minus 5 Days

I can't believe the MuckFest is this Saturday!!!  Thank you to everyone who has donated so generously.  Between the two of us, we have raised over $500.  Every dollar goes towards finding a cure for MS.  We are super excited to get mucky this weekend and will post pictures next week.

Today I received an email from the MS Society that said this:

Multiple Sclerosis is a disease of the central nervous system. Signals from your brain to your body get disrupted. So, it affects movement. It affects thinking. It affects… EVERYTHING. It’s hard to diagnose, unpredictable, and it impacts everyone differently. And there’s no cure. I have seen all of these things affect my dad and his daily living. And although it's not fun watching him battle MS everyday in everything he does, I am super proud of him for continuing to live life and not let MS hold him back.  This weekend he decided he wanted to climb back a short ways into the mountains to view a beautiful waterfall.  He ended up falling...he hit the back of his head and twisted his ankle badly.  MS may disrupt his life and the activities he wants to do, but he keeps fighting for every step and doesn't let MS tell him what he can and can't do. With your support, every dollar goes towards finding a cure for MS.  We hope and pray we will see that day in our lifetime.  Please consider supporting Jeff or myself to help find a cure for MS.
