4th of July Adventure!

On Saturday, after the wives run, I was able to meet Jared at Chatfield Resovior to jet ski!! A boy he sells with lives around there and his family has jet skis. They were nice enough to let us borrow them for the evening.
We went with a group from EcoSure down to the lake. Jared and two other boys went to the boat docks to just the two jetskis in, and ten rest of us went down to the lake front. When we first got there it was slightly raining (sprinkling) and the wind was blowing like crazy! So yes, it was a little chilly. But the water was warm, so I put my feet in the water and blocked the wind and the rain with my umbrealla =>
When the boys finally got back to us Jared and I got to go out!! And it was also our job to take life vests back to some people on the other side of the lake. (The boys has some miscommunication so the person who drove the car left without giving the boys life vests, and the rangers wouldn't let them drive the jetskiss over to us without life vests. This kind family was nice enough to let them borrow some)
I was rip and rearin to go, but then we discovered that I had taken the big life vest and left Jared with the small one. =>
So we exchanged vests, and everything was all fine! =>
Here we go!! I am so excited to ride this thing!! =>
We had to figure out how to ride together with two exrta life jackets. So we situated them between ourselves, because we figured I would be holding on to Jared for dear life anyways. =>
I love that I got to play with Jared on the 4th of July!! While we were waiting for the jet skis I was talking to one of the sales girls and told her that Jared and I hardly have any pictures together this summer. She was so cute and took my camera, and she deffinately did a good job at taking pictures of us on the jet skis!! Thanks so much Jenny!! =>
Here we go! Off into the wild blue yonder! => (I like the touch of two life vests between us, after all we need to be B_O_M length apart) => hehehe
These things were so much fun! Yes I was nervous and scared the first time Jared went super fast, because this is my first time on one, but then I got used to it and it was very enjoyable!! =>
After our first ride together!! I love this man!!! I am so lucky to have married such a wonderful person!!!
While we were waiting for the boys, We were under umbrellas (as you saw in the beginning of this post) and Jenny had an idea that we exagerate the picture and go waist (and then neck) deep into the water while still holding the umbrellas. So later that evening, we did. And I think it turned out to be a pretty cute picture. =>
On our second time out, we got dumped into the water. I was way scared to go in the water, maybe I have watched one too many water related scarry movies, but once I was in there, I was fine! And it was quite funny! =>
This is the day we were out, I had to get one of the bipolar skies! There were dark rain clouds, normal bright blue skies, some clouds that couldnt decide if they wanted to be rainy or not, and a beautiful sun! It definately was not the perfect warm lake weather, but it was not bad! And there was like no one on the lake, so we had it practically all to ourselves!! I am so glad Jared and I were able to play together on the 4th!! After the lake we watched a couple fireworks from our balcony, and then watched "Independace Day" I didnt make it through the whole movie, I fell asleep, but its the thought that count, right? => Happy 4th of July!!!
