Taking time from their families and while they did not ski due to figid cold temps and ice chunks we say a thanks to Lake Latawana who took the pluge into the waters. Thanks to other lake communities who have joined in for the cause of our family!

Lake Winnebago Missouri is the happiest place on earth, well, my dads farm a close second but for all of our family living at Lake Winnebago was like a dream. Each time we oulled up to our home, a colonial style house that decorated great at Christmas and was full of wonderful memories, we would pitch ourselves not believing this was our home! The Lake life is one few people are so blessed to have and once you have had it, I will be honest, very hard to let go of. Our kids went swimming and friends were over to swim with cousins down the road and cousins on the weekends, what a life. So many wonderful things to do and such a family community, we would learn just how incrediable this place would prove to be and how much we would long to come home.
Each year Freezin For a Reason was held after we moved away to North Carolina as Duke was where we were headed. We later would end up in Cincinnati Ohio, yet close to our doctor and I would find great care for myself in NC. Each year, the Lake Winnebago Wizzards would grow bigger crowds and media to enter frigid Missouri water to ski for our family. This turned into a yearly community event with so many people involved, it is hard to name each of them. News Stations and papers show up each year for now what has become the annual event to help our family with medical debt. The have a sperate fund through
