Drastic temperatures+hot tub= not our smartest moment.

If you were wondering how to give yourself a heart attack- read on. Tyler, Mr. Roa and myself thought it would be a fun adventure to go sit in the hot tub during a little snow storm. Now besides the freezing run to the hot tub- this seemed like a fairly simple, fun and smart idea. And that could have been the case had it not been so freezing cold that the pipes on the hot tub were frozen, which basically meant that we set the timer on the hot tub for 15 minutes- but it never went off.

We lost track of time with throwing snow balls and ice chunks into the pool and it was not until about 40 minutes later when the boys began wheezing and their eyes began to roll back in their sockets that we decided we better call it a day. So we threw on our towels and boots and ran back to our house. Due to insanely fast racing heart beat-Mr. Roa decided he better not go home and pass out while he was home alone. Tyler and Anthony were dizzy and sick for quite awhile. But after a half hour of laying on the floor wrapped in blankets and drinking ice cold water our hearts finally stopped freaking out and our bodies came back to life. Extreme hot and extreme cold mixed with a quick sprint back to the house...not a good combo. Not one of our wisest moments. We know. We are just going to chalk that one up to "learning experiences."
