What a Year!

Since I started this blog recently I thought it would be fun to go over some fun things I did this year before I started the blog. The year started out with tax season and me working at H&R Block. I always enjoy tax season and also enjoy when it is over. It also marked our trips to Mesquite to skydive in the cold months. Come March it was time to start skydiving in Ogden again.

In May I had my Polynesian Dancing Review. This year I got a new Tahitian costume and I love it.

In June I took my yearly trip to St. George with the mom, sister, niece, aunt, and 2 cousins. We always go Tuachan and see the plays. This year it was My Fair Lady and Cinderella. We also went rock climbing while we were there.

It was a fun July for skydiving because Skydive Ogden brought in a lot of different aircraft while our plane was getting a new engine. We jumped out of the Super Otter (a twin prop plane that can hold 28 people), a King Air (a plane that gets to altitude in 9 minutes, it usually take 20-30 minutes, a Skyvan and a Casa (both are rear tailgate exit planes and can hold up to 32 people).

In August we took a trip to Huntington Beach for a week. It was a very laid back vacation for us, not much adventure. We would get up go to the beach, soak up some sun, boogie board, soak up some more sun and then go get ready for dinner and then sleep and repeat. One day we went to Knott's Berry Farm. It was fun but I expected it to be better. Lagoon was just as good. Another day we went on a scuba dive. I am not very fond of beach dives, you get sand everywhere.

The worst thing that happened this year is that Keesha (our dog) died right after we got back from California. It is by far the hardest thing that has happened to Ryan and I since we’ve been married. It was devastating. We buried her at Gwen & Lloyd’s. I miss her so much. Ryan hit 2,000 jumps and every time he hits a 1,000 more jumps, he makes a base jump, so he took a trip up to Idaho and made two base jumps. He enjoyed it.

This brings us to where I started the blog. It has been a good year. I am so grateful for all of my family and friends. I am definately blessed to have awesome people in my life. Thanks to all of you for the love and support.
