TALK ABOUT LIVIN!!


Last year for Landon's and our brother-in-law Brandon's birthdays they got Skydiving tickets!! Finally they decided to get it booked and go! It was a day that will not be forgotten anytime soon! It was fun to watch Richard pace around and wait for his "boys" to jump out of the plane not knowing if the chute would open. Landon said on the way to Ogden that he was excited to do it but wasn't sure what to expect, but after he was back on the ground he said that he cannot wait to do it again. Next time I will definately do it with him! However, we did hear that there was a skydiver that was flying Tandem and they died this weekend. I am very thankful it wasn't anyone from our little group! As I was standing there watching them decend I kept thinking open, open, open....then when the chutes did open I was thinking now just hurry and land!! It's crazy how it is so thrilling but it really only took about 30 min. for the whole experience! (stay tuned for a video of the whole experience!!)

Oh my heck!!!!!! That sounds so intense. Darryl and I have wanted to do that for a long time. We were going to go a couple years ago but we found out I was pregnant and that threw the plans out the window for a while.
Maybe we'll join you when you do it with Landon!

Mandy, so fun to hear from you! I love that you tried out too! I was looking around all day for anyone I knew. Did you go with anyone, and what time were you there?
So sorry to hear about your towing experience.
