The Frozen Four

A couple of weeks ago, Kori got invited to participate in the POLAR PLUNGE with some friends; Kathryn, Karlee, and Hannah.  It was a fundraiser for Special Olympics.  Yeah, you actually PAID MONEY to jump in a frozen lake!  These are the crazy things you do when you're a teenager!  It was held out at Hyrum Dam, and they had cut a large chunk of ice out of the lake, large like swimming pool sized!  The participants had to walk out on the ice to the farthest point from the shore, jump in, and swim to shore!  Our girls had painted their faces and wore crazy outfits.  Kori wore her tutu.  When she was coming up out of the water, she felt something around her ankles and she was worried she'd lost her shorts.  But when she got out she quickly realized that it was her tutu, which is now on the bottom of the lake!  Oh well.  She could not even describe how cold the water was!  But the girls had a great time.  They got T-shirts and there were a lot of other people out there plunging and spectating.  Afterward, they all came over to our house to warm up in the hot tub and drink mexican hot chocolate.  It was a fun day, so fun that Kori is already planning next year's Polar Plunge!  INSANE!!
Here are Kathryn, Karlee, Kori and Hannah before the plunge:
