5 on Friday

My husband will be competing in his 4th Polar Bear Plunge to benefit Special Olympics NJ tomorrow.  

The plunge returns to Seaside Heights this year after relocating due to Hurricane Sandy.  

He totally lucked out...the polar vortex has passed and the weather will be mostly sunny and 56 degrees.  Still wouldn't be warm enough for me; they should do it in July, then I'd participate.  It's a fun, fantastic fundraiser that will net over 1 Million dollars by the time everyone is dried off and warm.

After the plunge we shall eat, drink and be merry.  SO looking forward to a day of shenanigans!

My 5 for today are photos throughout the years that we've participated and cheered on our friends and colleagues.

Freezin' for a Reason

2011 Polar Bear Plunge for Special Olympics New Jersey
These pics are from 2007 when we were just supporting our friend Johnny, who had to add some pizzazz to his plunge...
This year I am very proud of my husband for raising money and he'll be the one jumping into the icy Atlantic sans banana costume (although I may embellish a snuggie for him)
It's a fun day for an awesome cause...our plunge locale in Seaside Heights, NJ has already raised almost 820K. Disclaimer: We are NOT like the show, those people aren't even from here!
I personally am looking forward to catching up with some old friends and boardwalk pizza! I am very thankful for our friends, family and co-workers who donated toward Bills plunge and I am so proud of hubby, willing to brave the elements (partly cloudy and 43 degrees) for a great cause!
