Well, since I can't EVEN begin to catch up a whole DANG YEAR (Where does the time go???) I will start with today...and try to catch up a bit at a time! *grin* Actually...MAYBE there are a couple pertinent parts I should mention!! In November last year, Steven retired from the Army after 23 years...we moved back to our hometown (which we joined the military to get out of--go figure!), bought a house...and a bunch of other stuff in between *grin*
Anyways...today! Have I mentioned that I have a WILD and CRAZY son? This is the child who laid in a snowbank in shorts just to have a picture taken for me...loves totally scary roller coasters and so on...so WHY WOULDN'T he want to take the "Polar Bear Plunge"??? Have I mentioned we live in IDAHO???

Here he is chillin' with the Fat Cats mascot preswim
(Fat Cats is the local theater/bowling alley)

Normally they get 50+ people for the plunge--but had to move the date when there was NO SNOW *grin* so they didn't have as many as normal. Either that or people got smarter? (Well, except Stevie as you can tell!)

This is the kids getting ready to jump...it was only about 35 degrees outside...BRRRRR!

And he's OFF...that first step off is a killer! BRRRRR!!!

He made it across the pool without turning blue or icicles forming off his nose! (Notice all the paparazi!)

They had to make it across the pool and then run to the family members holding towels and coats!!

So...to recap:
Spending the morning at a cold outdoor event: $0
Freezing butt off in a cold pool: $0
Sitting in a hot tub with cute girls afterwards: Priceless!
What a kid!
