Walk to Defeat ALS & Pumpkin Patch

This past Saturday we participated in the Walk to Defeat ALS at the Arvest Ballpark in Springdale.  Corey's father was diagnosed with ALS approximately 21/2 years ago so it is an organization that is dear to our hearts.  ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease)  is a motor neuron disease that is incurable and in-treatable.  We hope that there is a cure discovered very soon so and that others will not have to go through what Gary has.  This particular walk raised $300,000.00 to support research of the disease.  We can't wait to participate next year!

Thank you for walking with us!!!

Afterwards, we went to a local pumpkin patch where they had a corn maze, hay rides, petting zoo and a big mountain of wood chips that Cooper just could not get enough of.  It was a beautiful and day to spend outside with great company. 





Fall is here!
