Polar Bear Plunge

Last year all I heard was "We want to do the Polar Bear Plunge!" I said "Are you crazy?! No way! You will freeze your rear off." This year I let them. It really wasn't too bad. The temperature was around 55. They dumped ice in the pool before all the people jumped in. All morning long I heard, "We are going to stay in that pool for a long time. We aren't sissies. When everybody gets out we will just float around." When 400 bodies hit the water and their heads came out all you heard was a collective AAAHHHHH!!!!! You had better not have been in their way to get their towel because you would have been mowed down. Guess who were 2 of the first out of the pool. ; ) Joseph's 2nd jump. The first was straight into the pool with 400 other people!




Parker's 2nd jump.



The littlest polar bear. He took off what clothes he could and was VERY MAD that I wouldn't let him out of the stroller. (notice the bottom lip stuck out)




Right before the big jump. My brave, crazy boys.
p.s. Caden was going to jump, but he ended up spending the night at his cousin's house.
