Muck MS!!

On Saturday

we joined a fundraiser for the

MS Society...

a muddy 5 km, 12 obstacle course

to raise some money

to find a cure for MS.

We had a GREAT time,

(other than one of our friends really hurting his knee!)

and accomplished a lot of good

right in my backyard!

The MS Society used two of the farm's fields for the

majority of the obstacles...

Ben and George had their busy week made a little

busier with this event going on but

when you are as busy as they are then I guess you don't notice

just a little more work!!

(hint: I am SUPER DONE with field work right now,

but as they say, make hay while the sun shines

-oh yeah, and dont forget harvest corn, spread manure - liquid and dry,

and the neighbours dry manure, disc, cultipact, plant cover crop,

grass silage, spread more manure....)

Most people say spring and fall are their best seasons...

I say summer and winter because spring/fall are just too busy!!

Anyhow, back to the mud run!!

I put together a team of 13...

we had a blast!



.... Very sad that Will Van Saane hurt his knee on the very first mud hole!!

The rest of us all finished a fantastic race with Nathan and Silas Neels leading the way!! 

see how sore Will is :(

Aunt Carla was there taking all these pictures and I am MOST thankful for this one of my dear heart with a real look an real smile!! 

My last obstacle!!

Thanks everyone for joining in on the fun.... Xx 

and a special thanks to those who donated to the worthy cause

as pledges for us!!
