Good times

So i never realize how much I don't actually update my blog! I'm on this website almost daily, yet I don't usually take the time to write a new blog, so here it goes! I'm actually going to write something new! :)

So last weekend I learned something new! I learned how to wakeboard. And just as proof...here's a picture.

I went to Strawberry reservoir with Tony's family last weekend. Tony came up on Saturday and then left for Aspen, so it was me, Randy (Tony's Brother), Amanda (Randy's girlfriend) and Angela (Tony's sister). I get along really well with his family, so I had a ton of fun hanging out with them. Anyway - on Saturday we let the "pro's" handle the wakeboarding, so Amanda and I finally broke out the tube so that we could get on the water! It was so much fun!! Then on Sunday we decided it was the day for me to learn how to wakeboard. We got out on the water about 10:30 that morning and it was BEAUTIFUL! I was a little nervous as I had never wakeboarded before, but I was really excited to learn. So Amanda helped me get into my bindings and into the freezing cold water. Then Randy tells me he's going to drag me for a little bit and then pop me right up. So I'm thinking to myself "Right, this guy doesn't realize that it took me 4 hours to get up on water skis!" So he starts to drag me and then before I know it, I am up!! Yes, the first try I got up on a wakeboard! I was so excited!!! I was really ambitious for some reason and learned how to cross the wake and switch my board all on my first day of wakeboarding EVER! I felt REALLY good about what I had accomplished and really proud of myself for actually getting up and not being too afraid to try something new! it was a great feeling and so much fun! I can't wait to get back out there and try new tricks!

Yes, it's another picture and roughly the same - but it's more proof that I actually got up and stayed up long enough for a picture to be taken! :)
