frozen encounter

you know i'm shutter-happy. if you get bored, sorry.


sooo, darcy participated in our community polar bear swim this morning. he raised money for the make a wish foundation and jumped into the literally frozen reservoir . . for . . . fun. ?!?!?!

there were probably 200 people who showed-up for the event. it was about 30 degrees, snowing and sleeting off and on. they got a bunch of snow on the mountain last night and everyone was driving up the hill at a snail's pace. we had to 4x it near the top cause the conditions were so bad.

anyways, here are some sweet sweet pics from this morning. including 20+ of darcy getting in and out of the frigid lake. :) hehe

oh yeah, AND pearl and i are sick. not good timing, but someone had to take the pictures. :)

That looks way too cold. I probably would have waited in the car.

How sad for Darcy! Everyone else's loved ones were helping them get dressed and warm, while you were just standing there taking pictures!! :)
