This year on Thanksgiving morning we participated in a fund raiser run called the Cannon Boy Run. Greg's nephew has a disease called Menkes and at age 2 is completely dependant on others to feed him and do everything else. Greg put on a fun run as a rally of support for this sweet little nephew of his, Cannon. So we joined them. We had a great time with the family participating in different competitive activities throughout the morning.
This is Cannon and his mom (Greg's sister) Natalie. They live in Washington and were down for the Thanksgiving weekend.
Everyone was on a 2 person team for the activities. Josh and Liev were a team. Rease and I were a team.
And Rhen and Jessica (Greg's niece) were on a team. Some of the activites included somersaults, shooting and arrow through a target, piggy back rides, cartwheels, pictionary, nerf guns shooting, hula hooping, and many others. 2 teams at a time ran through the whole course and the winner went on in the bracket. So each team got to do the course at least twice and the teams that continued to win did it many more times. By the end, the winners were tired but we had such a fun day! (The smiley face is one of the pictures Rhen drew during pictionary.)
After the competition we all wrote well wishes for Cannon and tied them to the end of a balloon.
Then as a group we let our wishes float away and reach the heavens.
We love this sweet Cannon Boy and wish him the best!
