30....Flying and Fancy Free

So it's true.  I am officially 30 now.  The last day I was 29 I'm not going to lie....I was having a little "come apart"/ panic attack and really feeling old.  I had to work that night and had a horrible night so I was expecting the worst for being 30.  My birthday fell on a Sunday this year (can I just request that for every year?)  So that means I got the most delicious breakfast in bed, Trav was home all day, we had church and I actually got to go to relief society.... (Yeah, they announced me as a visitor...that was awkward.  I think that's only the 3rd time I've been to relief society since we've lived here for 2 years.  I haven't made it out of the Primary room much)  But we started out the day by opening presents:  Josh got me some much needed and wanted slippers.....(don't mind the hair and make-up situation)

 Kate drew me a beautiful picture and got me a new welcome mat for our door.....

 Rachel got me a movie......and Frankenstein arms in the picture....

 And Trav got me the best present EVER!!!  Paragliding.  I have to admit I was a little nervous until I actually saw what it was going to be like.  We had even tried to go last week but it was too rainy, but we got to go this morning.  It was so perfect and absolutely gorgeous. This was waiting for our turn to go...

 Once we took off it was amazing!!!  It wasn't scary at all.  I have a ton of pictures so bear with me.  He gave me a little camera on the end of a pole that took a picture every 3 seconds so believe me when I say this is not all of them.

 We made a fly by to some people waiting to go...

 That parachute behind us is Trav.  We got to fly at the same time which was so cool.

 That's Trav in the background again.  Gorgeous gorgeous sky.

 And after the flight....no broken bones, no will needing to be acted upon, no paralysis, not even wind burn.  Just a big stinkin' smile on both our faces.

It was seriously the BEST way to celebrate being 30.  This is definitely something I want to do again.  In fact, I even told Trav I was quitting the Roof to become a para glider.  You can do that for a living you know.....he whole-heartily agreed without any hesitation. I don't think that will actually happen but I can dream can't I? I have to admit being 30 isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.
