Ice Bucket Challenge

It's all the rage.  Spreading across the internet as fast as celebrity gossip.  The Ice Bucket Challenge for ALS.  Everyone is doing it.  And I mean everyone.

It started on Facebook with friends challenging each other to dump a bucket full of ice and water over their heads.  The thought was if you didn't want to accept the challenge you were suppose to donate money to ALS.  Soon the focus shifted and as you challenged your friends to the Ice Bucket Challenge you would challenge them to not only dump the ice and water on their head but to ALSO donate money to ALS.

In the few months during this internet rage, the ALS Foundation raised over 100 million dollars

It was fun (at first) watching all of the challenged come across Facebook. Some people had pretty creative 'dumps'.  Jumping into pools, dumping inflatable pools off of garages, standing in the middle of the state fair....they were good ones!  When I was nominated by Kristin, Hannah and Hailey wanted to get in on the action.  Hailey and I sat together and Hannah wanted to do her own.

I knew it was going to be cold and I knew that Hailey would not be a huge fan once she felt how cold it was.

Brian dumped the bucket full of ice and water on our heads and then the screaming started.  Hailey hated it.

She recovered pretty fast but for about 3 minutes she was pretty upset.

Take One:  our neighbor Noah wanted to tape Hannah's challenge.  After she was drenched, we tried to watch the video and he hadn't recorded it so it didn't turn out.  She was SUCH a trouper and decided that she wanted to do it again so she could get it on video and challenge others.
