Thought I'd share some photos of our Polar Bear Swim from last weekend.

Granted, a Polar Bear Swim in south Texas is very different from say... Canada, but by the end the kids were shivering and their lips were bluish so we think it counts.

We went to stay with our very dear friends who are in the final phase of installing their pool, and this was the first time the kids really swam in it.

Even the Dads put on their swimsuits and got in. How cool are they? Actually, given the water temperature, they were very cool! Ha Ha.

Because it's the "off-season" for swimsuits, I'm not posting photos of the Dads. (even though they looked just fine!)

The Mommies chose to stay dry, to be the official photographers and enjoy Limoncellos by the pool.

Smart Mommies!

Cold Little Polar Bears!!

What could make the day more special?

It was Hayden's birthday!!

Thanks for letting us share your special day - and your new pool!!!

We love you, buddy!

Plans are already being made for the 2nd Annual Polar Bear Swim in 2010!
