ALS Ice bucket Challenge

One of the big fads from 2014 has been the "ALS water challenge" A man with ALS challenged some friends to either soak themselves with ice cold water or to donate to ALS. This challenge went viral and everybody around the nation jumped on board.  All over facebook you could see friends, family, celebrities, business owners, political figures etc. being a part of the challenge.  After being nominated, my girls jumped into the fun as well. 
Sadie was nominated by two different friends and ended up doing it twice. 

Among her nominations were Calli. 
Calli was also nominated by Aubrey Gooch (keeper at SC) and Ashlynn. Tavin had also been nominated, so they decided to do it together while they were down. 
They decided to go big or go home, so...
 Their's took place at a car wash where after getting ice water poured on them, they were blasted with the car wash water.  Among Calli's nominations was myself. ( I have yet to complete my mission, but I will)

Gentry was also nominated more than once. (Jantzyn and Emily) But the funnest one was when the entire RMES stepped up to the challenge. They were able to raise $850 for ALS and then did the challenge as well. After watching some of the teachers get drenched, each of the students got a cup of water and together poured it on themselves.

All wet. What a fun, great cause to be a part of.
