The Bacheolor ain't got nothin' on Barrett!

Saturday, February 19, 2011

Ok...I'll admit it.  I'm a reality show junkie.  I love shows like The Biggest Loser, The Bachelor, Survivor, Top Shot, and (my favorite) The Amazing Race.  On The Bachelor, there are always girls in the swimming pool....but do you think they'd be in the pool if it was winter time?!?  Well, Mikayla was all about impressing Barrett by showing him how tough she is!  (Ok...so maybe they're only 2 years old, and there's no romantic interest, and they were really just having fun in the pool....but maybe when they're in college they'll fall in love and get married...and then we'll get to visit CO more than once a year...and these pictures will be super cute in their wedding video!)

"Barrett, do you dare me to get in the freezing cold pool?"

"It's not so bad."

"I mean.  Really.  If anyone thinks this water is cold they're a sissy!"

 

"Wow!  The longer you stand here the less you feel your toes!"

"Whew!  Maybe I was wrong!  I'm not sure if I can feel my feet at all!"

"It's ok girl.  Just act tough.  He'll never know that you're hoping from foot to foot so that you keep feeling in your toes!"

(I should try to empathize with her.  I'll act like I'm cold too....)"Brrrrrr!"

 

"See Barrett, that wasn't so bad!  Actually, I think I like swimming in February.  My dad is always telling me about swimming in ice melt pools in the mountains.  I think I'll join him next time he goes."

 

Barrett - "I think it's time to go ask our mommies to wrap us up in a warm towel.  I'm cold just watching you swim!"
