I'm a Really Good Faller






Alexie and I went Skydiving yesterday and it was amazing!!!  I went from completely terrified to completely elated in 3.5 seconds.  I recommend it to everyone.  We went to this place out in Lodi and when we got there they told us it was going to be a four hour wait.  We had already psyched ourselves up so we decided to just tough it out and wait.  It was so hot and boring but by the time our numbers were called I was soooo ready to just jump (or I guess hold on as someone else jumps).  The only instructions we were told was just cross your arms and bend your knees, but I figure they know what they're doing, I mean they have some sort of license or certificate or something right?  We got on the plane and it was a full 15 minutes of utter terror before we jumped, about 60 seconds of free fall at 120 mph, and then a few minutes to float on down.  I absolutely loved it and can't wait to do it again.

OK I want that pink parachute! I'm a little jealous. I've always wanted to go skydiving, but I don't know if I'm brave enough now that I have kids. . .
