Taking Flight

Indoor Skydiving

So Saturday night we went on a double date with our great friends The Call's. You see, we have been planning this adventure for - well forever. Last Christmas I gave Glenn a gift certificate to the Indoor Skydiving place here in Colorado. Lisa had given Alan a gift certificate too, so we finally decided to go last night. Lisa and I had a blast watching them and others and Glenn and Alan said they had a great time and would do it again in a heartbeat!!

They each had 2 minutes of flying time. They went in for 1 minute and then sat and waited their turn again, to do their last minute.

Here they are in the chamber getting ready for their turns

Here's Glenn 'in flight'
Glenn's hair is kinda long right now.. and I just HAD TO take this photo of his hair coming out of the holes of his helmet. It was just funny watching it flapping away!!

Here's a video of Glenn

Ohhh my goodness!! This video is SOO funny. Maybe it's a 'you just had to be there moment' but I totally have to share it anyway.

Glenn had a game night/b-day party the other weekend. We had our friends, Alan and Lisa over and the kids had a couple friends from school come over.

I don't know who started this, but, someone thought it would be fun to run from my family room and slide in my kitchen...it was a contest to see who could go the farthest. Tori, Nick and Alan were the ones having a grand ol' time and we had a blast watching them. At one point I sprayed pledge on a rag and wiped the hardwood floor down, in hopes that would speed them up. It was funny watching them almost biff it.

Sorry the video is sideways, I can't figure out how to turn it the right way!! SO sit back and tilt your head :) and hopefully you'll laugh.

Paintballin'

So Glenn turned 16 a couple weeks ago. We gave him some choices; Do you want presents to open? OR Do you want to go paintballin' with some friends, all expenses paid?

Can you guess what he chose??

Here they are at the orientation
All ready to go...
from l-r : Big Glenn, Andrew, Tyler, Nick and Glenn

Of course they had NUMEROUS stories to share after and welts to show off. They had a GREAT time! Glenn said this was one of THE BEST b-day presents he's ever got!! YAY!!! I am so glad they had a GR8T time and glad 'dad' got to share it with him.

F O U L ! ! !

Someone's takin' out the keeper!! No fair!!
