Last night Sean participated in the Junior Achievement Freezin' for a Reason. Basically he paid money to jump into a frozen pond. He was on the Menards team thanks to Stefanie's Sean. They wore cut-off jean short, work boots, knee high socks, suspenders and a Menards hat. They painted the letters on their chest to spell Menards. Sean had MOD on his chest (which stands for Menards or Die!). It was 26 degrees out for the quick dip in the pond. Stefanie and I paid to go watch and hang out with the teams at the after party. We all got hooded sweatshirts, pizza, cookies, chips and drinks. There was quite a few teams jumping in the pond. Some had outfits like construction crew, smurfs, guys in dresses and then a lot just in swimsuits!
As you can tell from the video Sean took about 5 steps in the water and that was enough for him. He was the last one in and the first one out. I don't think I have seen him move that fast. He has said he will not be doing this next year!

Stefanie and I made them take another picture after they jumped in!
Ummm...I don't recall what the "reason" was? Charity? When I first saw the pictures (on facebook) I thought Sean's chest said, "Moo" so I thought perhaps Menards was a dairy.
